    Yeah, been like that for some time.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    I now use 18185, been meaning to do it a while!

    I also noticed that the rate to mobiles, at weekends, differ according to whether you look at the 18185.co.uk home page or the "rates" page or the "mobilerates" page.

    I think the penny just dropped :D the "mobilerates" page means if you are calling FROM a mobile or another line provider, apart from BT, rather than from a landline - and arn't using the 18185 prefix. BUT the cheaper rate is applicable to landline users whether from a BT line or from another provider TO mobiles phones (in this case)!

    :rotfl: if that makes sense!
