I've used this service to call some friends in Canada, much cheaper than using our landline. I hope it's of some use to someone.

    You have to be joking. 10p per minute calls to:
    • Canada (1)
    • USA (1)
    • Australia (61)
    • Austria (43)
    • Belgium (32)
    • Czech Republic (420)
    • Denmark (45)
    • Estonia (372)
    • France (33)
    • Germany (49)
    • Greece (30)
    • Hungary (36)
    • Ireland (353)
    • Italy (39)
    • Luxembourg (352)
    • Monaco (377)
    • Netherlands (31)
    • Norway (47)
    • Poland (48)
    • Russia (7)
    • Portugal (351)
    • San Marino (378)
    • Spain (34)
    • Sweden (46)
    • Switzerland (41)
    • Vatican (39, 379)
    That's at least ten times more expensive to most destinations than many of the offerings on the MSE International CallChecker.

    I doubt there's anybody on MSE who pays more than 1p per minute to call USA, Canada, Australia, Spain etc.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.
