Almost unbelievable Easymobile offer - free calls on 19/05

Only time will tell if I am right or they are wrong0 -
Last time I checked they allowed 07744 calls.
Charged at 15p / minute.
I would love to hear from somebody who can try a call to 07744 after midnight tonight and check the online billing (in some time) and update everybody.0 -
does this 07744 number count as a mobile no? if so then it will be free on 19th
yes/or no?0 -
Hopefully yes.
Somebody have to test and update everybody after 12 hours.0 -
Why the big deal over 07744 numbers? Just wondering0

well if you can dial a 07744XXXXXX number from you mobile you will be able to call many international destination. Since there is a chance these call will be free on friday, you can figure out why people are eager.
You can search for specific 07744 number by searching it on google, try "07744 usa" or the international destination you would like to call.0
