Call Thailand from UK landline?

Basie

I saw a link on this site a while back which linked to a website which offered cheap calls abroad from a UK BT landline, but I can't remember the address (or find it on here now).

All I remember is that it had the word "dial" in the title and I think the site was red.

The calls to Thailand were just 0.2p oer minute!

Anyone have any idea's what it was? (or recommend other ways of calling Thailand).

Thanks.

Look at the top of the page 'MoneySaving Call Checkers'. It's all there.

I don't think you'll find anything as cheap as a fifth of a penny now but ½p/minute is certainly possible (see HERE).

However, I'd caution that the MSE Callcheckers list costs from a BT landline. If you're callng from a Virgin Media landline, you'll pay considerably more.

Personally, I'd recommend 18185 in the case of Thailand because, although 1p/minute, you don't start paying until you get through (using the 0844 gateways means you start paying halfway through dialling).

I have been calling my son on holiday in Thailand fro the last 2 weeks via 18185. He bought a local sim card when he arrived and it has been costing me 1.5p per minute plus 4p connection charge for each call which is very cheap. I have spoken to him most days and have spent well over an hour on the phone and it has cost about £1.80.
