This is a great site, I have already opened an account with Coventry 60+.
18866 is giving everyone a shock this morning, can the message be right, or is it a Bug in the system?

I expect most people generally have set their Orchid diallers to use 1899 for w/end calls. It appears from 1899's home page that their w/end mobile rates (from landlines) are now 3p/min and not 2p, as before. This now makes 18866 slightly cheaper as their connection charge is 2p and not 3p and their call rates to mobiles are now the same as 1899 per minute at 3p. Might just be worth keeping an eye on....and possible updating of router.

This will save you the cost of a dialler.

But.........by leaving your modem connected you run the risk of falling foul of a "scam" rogue dialler getting installed.

The costs associated with one of those dialling a premium line unknown to you will far outweigh the savings on a dialler.

This FREE program will help with this. It is called diallerzapper and runs at startup. If any program dials out, a box pops up warning you. If you do not 'allow' the connection by clicking on the box within the specified period of time, it is automatically terminated.

Works a treat!

Glad everything is working for you. Its a common problem with 1899 so don't worry. Go back and sign up using a mobile number, once you get your confirmation email then go into your account and add your landline number and voila

The 20% discount appears to apply to all online orders:

Could this mean we're now inline for an even bigger "exclusive" discount!

I just bought a V2 one from Orchid over the phone they gave me 20% discount because the website was on the blink.I fitted it yesterday its a cracking bit of kit.It cost me £8.50 -20% =£6.80 +package and posting £1.70+vat £1.49=£9.99.Well worth it!!! It saves you lots of hassle,and its easy to overide if you want to call another carrier on particular calls.
