International calls from 0844

No, that would be the charge from a landline, which then appears on its bill with no other charge from the 0844 provider0

Thank you

Thats the cost from a BT Landline.If you use them from landlines yes you are charged and you start paying as soon as you hear the announcement. (Their are varying charging bands on 0844 ranging from half a p ,to 5p). However it doesnt what 0844 band you call from your O2 inclusive minutes they are all included.0 -
THANK YOU all. This makes sense. Basically the 0844 get commissions from the mobile providers since inclusive minutes are used to dial these numbers and therefore there is a cost to the end user,us.
Appreciate all the opionions and explanations posted to my questions.
