Is there a service like 18185.co.uk which can be used from Guernsey Telecom?

    Dont you mean can be used from Sure(CW) ?;)

    There are no indirect access codes like 18185 you can use from Guernsey Providers

    Also Sure charge a premium over the BT rate to call all 0844/0871 numbers including cheap access ones.

    http://www.surecw.com/guernsey/page-997

    They do allow however access to 0800/0808 freephone numbers for free.

    So it might be possible for someone in the UK to register a Guernsey No with 18185 and someover there use their 0808 freephone access number. See http://www.18185.co.uk/mobilerates.php If you have a 18185 a/c try and register Guernsey number and get somone over there to try it. (Note different charges apply to normal 18185) but still cheaper then Sure.
