Primus Saver Beware

Do they let you CPS your calls?
i am not sure as far as i am aware the line is still with BT , they just act as agent on your behalf, they do not let you use override codes for other providers
also with madasafish you can use there cost calculator to find how much the call cost before you ring and unlike primus you can view a summary and price of all calls made virtually in real time , enabling you to keep a daily track on how much you are spending , via logging to my account0 -
I have just telephoned Primus for more info after being put off by this post but the gentleman I spoke to was very helpful aalthough he was aware of this site.
Seems fairly straight forward to me I am currently with talktalk and he informed me of the various options open to me and advised me that I would not be transferred to Primus until I had received notification from BT advising me of date of transfer.
Haven't made a decision yet but seems ok.0 -

I'm pretty sure o2 revoked calls to 0870/0845 being taken out of your allowance a while ago...0 -

Recently switched from Primus Option 2 to Euphony. Seems to work pretty well. And free calls to customer services if you need it.0

A test of a good company is how they behave when things go wrong.
My view for what its worth - avoid this company. Madasfish seem a much better bet.0 -
I have had the PrimusPlanet-Talk free weekend & evening calls for a few years. No probs using 18185 for cheaper daytime calls, but I am now going to change back to BT for the free weekend & evening call tarrif.0
