On their main site they say
"Tariffs are effective from 15th August 2010 and are subject to change as specified in the Primus Saver terms and conditions. For all non-inclusive calls to UK geographic, UK mobile and international destinations a call set up fee of 9.5p applies. The rates shown apply from fixed line phones. Primus Home Phone Terms and Conditions apply."
Is the call set up fee a new thing. i thought they still used the minimum call method which was i believe 4.00p on non-inclusive landline calls and 7.00p on mobile calls.

My '6 steps' only ever recommended using Primus Saver for the free evening and weekend UK 01/02/03 calls which came with the - no monthly fee - CPS calls package.
Making chargeable calls via Primus was never on the agenda!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
