    Going back to the cheap calls from Spain, I used https://www.gotalk.co.uk and used my orange contract mobile to phone uk. Their access number(900944493) was counted as a free call on the AMENA network so i only paid gotalk 8p a mnute from Spain. I also tried the MOVISTAR network but they charged for the 900944493 number.

    i wonder if anyone could tell me if you could use the network 'three' to call the 020 number of 18866 and have it included in the inclusive minutes.
  • Has any 1 got any tried and tested access numbers to override ornage mobiles using 18866 or 1899 as the ones on the websites are being charged.

    Cheers

    A bit of advice: you can sign up for Orange online bills and check afterwards when you make a call. If you are happy with the charge, continue with that Telco...

    ...where do you get this option to see the itemised calls online?! I am a Orange Pay-Monthly customer with online account access and only get to see the PDF bills and the inclusive minutes (but not the inclusive texts).

    Please let me know.

    Hi im getting a V4 LCR today (hopefully) and wanted to check a few things

    Im on a TW line so will need to use the 8080 number, i plan to rout local + nat + mobile calls during the week to either 18866 / 18899, as their expensive on TW, but free on the week end

    But does anyone know much TW charge for 0870 / 0845 numbers and how much 18899 charge for their calls to them for their freephone access number (18866 charge 4p/min and 9p/min + 1p connection)

    Also what is the cheapest 118xxx number to call

    many thanks

    dave


    Tesco home phone 118xxx is free if u sign up to them and 18866 is still accessible but thats on BT, generally 118xxx are all expensive rip offs use http://www2.bt.com/edq_resnamesearch to search online for free people!!

  • Sorry if i have done this wrong. New to forum. I was just reading about the onetel mobile override.
    Will this still be beneficial to register with onetel if i have already registerd with 18866?
    Surely I will be charged by onetel which is more expensive than 18866 when calling from my landline, albeit mobile calls will be cheaper.

    Does anyone know how Fresh mobile charge 0844 & 0871 numbers? Is it their usual 15p a minute?

    I was also rather confuesd about this on their website:

    One-rate
    UK fixed line Peak (per 3 min) 15p
    UK fixed line Off-Peak (per 3 min) 15p

    does this mean that it is effectively 5p a minute if you happen to talk for 3 mins or is it an error?
