I don't - because their per minute price is twice what 18185 charge.Diamonds wrote:I use telediscount.. 0844 861 4141 then the number :cool: 1p per minute.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.0 -

18185 were charging 0.5p/minute to NZ last weekend - now I see they've upped the price to 1p/minute.
OTOH, there's still one dial-through provider on the MSE Callchecker offering 0.5p/minute rate to NZ to those calling from a BT landline (recommend 1280 prefix for those with a CPS provider) - PhoneCheap - 0844 200 2525.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.
