Orange payg and 18866

Does 18866 work using an orange payg mobile..... I have just bought one and registered it but the call via 18866 never gets connected.........

Do I have to call via the 0808 number??? if so does anyone know how much this costs on Orange payg.

Ta very much

    0800 and 0808 are not free calls when using Orange PAYG. Therefore you would incur charges from both Orange and 18866 for any calls you make.

    no, its not worth it, BUT on tesco mobile payg it is worth it just about, as they have 3 favourite numbers for 10p/minute. they use the o2 network,you can access their 0207... access number.
    Orange charge 35p a minute to 0800, unless you are on contract in which case i believe it is still free.
    never put off buying a bargain today,it may be gone tomorrow
