Phoning South Africa from a Virgin line

hansi

What would be the cheapest way for me to make calls to South Africa from my Virgin fixed line other than VOIP. I know they have an International Talk plan, but is there an override provider I could use?

Their is a list of providers here;

but these are only from a BT line.To avoid the expensive VM connection and call charges to 0844/0871 numbers you could use www.18185.co.uk/mobilerates.php via their 0808 Freephone Access Number. 4p connection and 3p a minute to a South African Landline.

18185 dont normally charge a connection charge if the destination number is engaged/unobtainable. If you use 0844/0871 access numbers you start paying as soon as you hit the providers recorded announcement .
