Hi,
I would like to know what you think about the Telcom 'Freecall' mobile tariff of £10 a month (with no mimimum contract term)...
Company literature states that you can call other Telcom 'frecall' mobiles free of charge any time day or night ... for free -provided call duration less than 15 mins per call.
Seems a good deal to me, is there anyone out there using this service and if so, what do you think? good, bad any hidden charges etc.
All help gratefully received

There is ambiguity in their tariffing. On the one hand they say UK landline, plus 0800 0870 and 0845 calls are charged at 10ppm. Then further down the page they say that Free call 0800 numbers are not tariffed. If they do not tariff 0800 then that opens up some good possibilities for using their service in conjunction with 18866.com and/or 1899.com.
You could use Tesco mobile in conjunction with 18866.com and/or 1899.com. Tesco won't charge you £10 per month. Call charges are 20ppm and you can nominate upto 3 numbers to be charged at 10ppm. Therefore you could register the 02 access number for 18866.com and/or 1899.com, thereby alllowing you to make all calls to UK landlines at about 11ppm. On Saturdays and Sundays you could call other mobiles for 12ppm using 1899.com
Here's a link to Tesco Mobile:

You have to join their "club" - £1.76 every month.0
