Confused with Talk 1 pricing

I am with talk talk 1 but my line rental with bt
Is the weekend calls free on any talk 1 plan? or is it just for those who have line rental with talk talk?

Just that i saw 4 calls charged at the weekend
While I breathe.... I hope

    on Talk 1 all 01 & 02 landline calls are free at weekends .Mobile ,0845 ,0870
    calls are not free .
    You dont need to pay your line rental to talk talk to get free weekend calls .
    Talk Talk also give you free calls to other Talk Talk customers at any time .

    primus will offer you FREE 01 & 02 evening & weekend calls ,so unless you make a lot off calls to Talk Talk customers , I would look at primus for evening & weekend calls . 1899 for daytine calls 18185 for mobiles .

  • Can you checked the times of the calls you have been charged for as it could be what you call the w/end might not be what TalkTalk call the w/end.

    I think, from memory, for TalkTalk its midnight Friday to early Monday morning :confused:

    I noticed the Talk Talk 1 on the website earlier this month advertising free weekend calls to all landlines. As a longstanding Talk Talk customer I have never had any special offers from them and only get free TalkTalk to TalkTalk calls. I rang them up and asked why I wasn't getting the free weekend calls, and they agreed to put me on it on the spot.

    Worth a phone call to them to ask the same. btw - I still have my line rental with BT as they do the free caller ID (the privacy thing) but TalkTalk charge for this.
