have been using 18866 for 2 years
got no update about price hike EVER...since it was 1p
caveat emptor ! it's up to us to outsmart and not for them to help us !!
anyway
here's another handy one
if you have Ireland calls, it's cheaper for them to call you
on a 18866-owned site in ireland https://www.call13434.ie
it's EUR 0.005 per min to call UK landlines...that's half a EURO cent
it's EUR 0.05 per min to call UK mobiles....that's 5 EURO cent
half a euro cent is .34 of a penny
5 euro cent is 3.4p
so for Ireland to call your mobile is 3.4p a min vs 15p a min from 18866
so for Ireland to call your land line is .34p vs 2p from 18866
it's 22% of the 18866 cost for mobs
it's 17% of the 18866 cost for landlines
i imagine there might be equiv deals from other global locations like Oz, SA and USA nowadays..........so email them and tell them to call you or make one quick call to them then they call you back and you can yak for hours !0 -
