  • Give yourself another Christmas present Gary and get onto TalkTalk, then all you need to pay BT is £10.50 ;D ;D

    Thanks to 18866 I was able to chat to my friends in NZ last night just after Santa arrived there and again this morning once Santa had been here. I can well remember the days of doing that via BT with a timer nearby so when I had spent a fiver I hung up, usually after five minutes :o

    thanks from me too, just received my first bill from em £2.21, for 2 months, i was paying £30 a month with bt, then transfered to onetel for £11 a month which i thought was a good saving but nothing beats this so far, reduced down so i still get free directory enquiries and now joined talk talk thanks to recommendations and a big thanks to Sunil for my joining code. ;) ;D ;D

    :o

    how?

  • how?

    Dont take any BT options, phone BT 150 to change the BT package to the basic one. If you pay by DD, the monthly charge is 10.50
    Spend smart, and save more.

    LOL, Island_Man!

    The Tart Alert is really for reminding you when your 0% interest rate runs out on a credit card and you get a reminder of the date. In fact you can input anything, so I put TalkTalk and the month before my free calls runs out to give me time to find another deal for my evenings and w/end calls ;D

    Oh I see. I never pay anything on my credit card. In fact it is hardly used. I recently made several 000's available to my daughter to top up cash for a replacement car, and when the visa arrives requesting payment within x weeks, I will simply transfer from another account and pay off all in one go. She in return, via a standing order will repay me untill it is repaid.

    In other words, I make an interest free loan available to her. Aint that wot dads ar for !

    hello all,

    im seriously considering 18866 (at the moment am on onetel-not happy with connection charge)

    but can anyone tell me what the 18866 rate is for 09 numbers? It doesnt say on their website.

    Thanks

    There's no price for 09 type calls because you cannot route these types via 18866 or 1899.com
