Using 18185 from a mobile registered with 18185

Thanks. It seems then you do not save by using 18185 for most calls. I can only think then of saving on say the virgin network where they charge 15p or less for a landline but 35p to call a non virgin mobile.

On Virgin you can reduce the 35p a minute x-net charge by using a 0871 access number as they only charge 15p a minute to call 0871 numbers.EG:

www.discountdial.co.uk 0871 754 42 42.

Thanks for your input. Certainly gives me more to consider. I think I'll do that in the morning.:D

I have just signed up with 18185, and i want to make a call from my mobile on holiday in spain, to my girlfriend in Malia (Greece) on her mobile. Any idea what charges I will be looking at for this - their website doesn't make it clear.

Any help or better solutions...?

It will be an expensive business. 18185 mobile access is only any good if your calling from within Uk.

Your be paying the intl roaming rate to call the 18185 020 access number, plus 5p connection, plus the rate to call your gf mobile.

What network are you on,is she on uk mobile or Greek Mobile.

There are two possibilities

At least one more ;-)

My SonyEricsson T610 used to have a "use calling card" option when to call a number - check to see if your phone has such a feature; it would dial the access number automatically, provide a PIN if necessary, then dial the number you want... really really useful when I used to use it!!!

She is on a uk mobile on holiday. I'm with orange, she's with O2. Looked at using Rebtel, which covers Spain, but not Greece (she will be in Malia).

Any other solutions? (apart from not talking!)

thanks

As it's a bit off-topic here, I've transferred my answer to your other thread about this
