Can someone please confirm it it defintaly available to all sky talk customers or only a select few?
Thanks
I have Sky TV and Sky talk and was on Sky Talk freetime until Nov 3rd. When I came to know of Sky talk 24/7 international, I called up Sky and asked them to move me to this tariff and it was done then and there. I have seen my bills since then and yes, the tariff is exactly as advertised.
I know that some may find 7p connection charge a bit of a stealth but then I weighed it against the fact that I am getting unlimited length calls to India for just 7 p and that made it a very good deal for me.
I am surprised to hear that this tariff is not being offered to many forum members who called up Sky and asked for it. I for sure did not experience that.0 -
So it seems that if you are on the traditional sky talk packages, and don't want or need the extra international options, you would be simply better off changing to the new basic skytalk 24/7 as you get the 24/7 calls instead of just the evenings and weekends or better still you save yourself £5 if you used to pay for the unlimited option. Hmm, no wonder sky are dragging their feet and not easily offering it to everyone.0

Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0

My friend today tried to get this tariff (Sky Talk 24/7 international)from Sky but it seems it is no longer offered. Only those who switched to this tariff while it was on offer around November continue to be on this tariff.0
