How can I make cheaper calls to Dubai?

I am in the UK but I work in Dubai and commute regurlarly between the two. I am making lots of telephone calls to different clients (and Dubai mobiles as well) from the UK using my TalkTalk home phone and im getting a big bill.

How can I make cheaper calls to Dubai?

I don’t mind calling from a mobile if that works better.

    For some reason, UAE is one of the more expensive destinations (7.15p/minute to a UAE landline from a Talk Talk landline is the best you can hope for). See HERE.

    Calling a UAE mobile is more costly and 8.17p/minute from a Talk Talk landline is probably the least expensive option available - see HERE.
    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.
