Should I go for O2 or Orange to call internationally from my X-network minutes?

    If you have not to pay any extra charge for these calls as is charged on calls from landline phones to these numbers then 0844, 0845, 0870 numbers are even better that 07744 numbers because there are more choice and more destinations available on these numbers. If this is the case then O2 is better choice.
    07744 numbers can have a greater range of destinations; you just need to look at more providers. There are no 0844 numbers that can reach European mobiles for example.

    If you have inclusive minutes on o2 there is no additional charge for using 0844 0845 0870 minutes as long as your contract allows this.

    Thanks for useful information. In this case O2 looks more sutable for me than Orange. As there are many 0844 number provider to call Pakistan and here in the UK you need to make many 0845 and 0870 calls for day to day livings.

    Thanks

    Reference to making international calls through 0844 numbers using inclusive minutes of O2 contract,

    I have made a test call yesterday afternoon to Pakistan and today I checked my O2 account online and it was nice to see that the 3 minutes 4 seconds call was fully covered by the inclusive allowance.

    Hurrah
