Hi, I recently changed my package on BT to Line rental saver and transferred my calls back to BT.

I still have an account with Primus. Is their anyway of making calls from my Primus account by dialing their 4 digit code followed by the telephone number?

The account I have with Primus is old Option 2 with free evening and weekend calls. According to their website it looks they charge for new customers now.

Also has anyone having problems accessing online billing?

    You may have saved on your line rental but I think you made a bad decision.

    You will not be able to get back onto a CPS package with Primus whereas those of us who have done nothing are still enjoying our free evening (6pm to 8am) and weekend 01/02/03 calls (I use the word 'free' advisedly because no monthly fee is payable).
    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.

    Might be a bad decision.

    If I ring Primus will they be able to activate CPS on my BT line again?

    You will not be able to get back onto a CPS package with Primus - they no longer offer CPS to new customers (you would be considered to be a new customer).
