0845 number cost on Sky Talk. (Student finance)

Tomorrow is the deadline for my application and i'm having a problem with it as the website never works. I'm on Sky Talk where its free to ring landline numbers if I pay a certain amount of money. Well my parents do, lol.

But i know that tomorrow I will be talking to student finance tomorrow and on the phone for about a hour. How much would this cost? Its an 0845 number.

Thanks.

    Their 0845 calls cost just over 6p a minute plus a connection charge.

    Have you tried www.saynoto0870.com for an alternative geographical number ?

    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.

    Bear in mind though that, if you're calling from a BT residential landline and you're not on a calling plan which makes the call inclusive, calling the 0845 number will cost 2p/minute weekday daytime (just over a third the 5.9p/minute cost of calling the 01 number). Either would also attract BT's call set-up fee of 9.9p.
