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

I've been using 18185 for so long now I can't judge.
I just look at the timer display on my DECT phone every time I hang up from a weekday daytime call and calculate what it roughly would have cost me on BT against the 5p it really cost me (e.g. a 10 minute call would have cost me over 60p)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.

I estimate that (as a relatively light user of the phone in the daytime) I'm saving ~£10 per quarter using 18185; If my duaghters were still at home I suspect I would be saving ~ 3 times as much!!0
