Hi Guys, I,ve gone totally TalkTalk landline/bb.
I,ve always used 18185 to ring spanish mobile with BT, but which is cheapest now I ,m with TT. Do they allow prefix numbers? or are there better options? I have free mobile numbers, but not international, as part of my package, and unlimited uk calls via LL.
any advice appreciated.

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.0

Hi Heinz, thanks for link. I notice nearly all except 18185 are basically "simply dial" 0844, and calls are charged from start of dial tone, and even if not connected, so taking price of 0844+connection +first minute can be pricey.
Are thier connections quick/good, by feedback?
18185 have increased a lot and have changed access number to 02 from 080, still free for me, or should be as part of my calls deal.but, connections have always been good in past, but that wasn,t using access number, bt.not tt. guess trial call is best./:beer:0 -

If you dont want to pay a connection charge or any other sort of fee try http://www.localphone.com/call/spain access is via a uk geographical number that points straight at your target number.( Free test call is available ).0 -
