Suggestions for an alternative override provider (similar to First Telecom?)

Hello there

It has come to my attention that telecom/override provider First Telecom will be closing down its prepay operations from Friday 15 Septemeber 2012, so having used this service for 13 years, now I am currently seeking another telephone override company that will also allow me to do the following, just as First Telecom has done:


  • Call abroad, using any landline via a freephone access number (I don't have my own landline - but I've got access to one)
  • Have mobile access to this override service
  • Access to premium numbers - starting 09; yes I need to call technical support, I do occasionally call competition lines - but the most disturbing of all, my doctor's surgery has an 0844 number - which I've needed to access either when I am at someone else's home or needing to use my mobile - I don't always get through as the credit gets swallowed up before then.
For me, First Telecom supplied all my needs, as I preferred the idea of no nasty surprises and prepay calls suited me just fine. So I am wondering whether any of the forum users may know of an alternative company: I've looked at 18185.co.uk and this company doesn't allow the premium calls.

Any suggestions would be most welcomed - many thanks.
