Calling Three mobiles

Why does it cost more with some (all?) landline providers to call 3 mobiles than other mobile numbers?
I'm sure 3 were campaigning to lower line termination fees to make calls between mobiles cheaper so surely they're not the ones specifying these fees for landline users? :eek:

They paid billions at auction for their frequencies so I'm fairly sure it is them with the high termination rates causing many providers to charge more to call a '3' mobile.
I use 18185 myself - 6p/minute to any mobile.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
