"From 1st May 2007 the way your call charges are calculated is also changing. Instead of charging to the nearest second, calls will be rounded up to the next minute.
So for example, a call that lasts 4 minutes and 50 seconds will be rounded up to 5 minutes. This will affect customers with call plans, those with bundled minutes (Talk Anywhere) and all other telephony customers in the same way "

At the same time their bringing down the price of a couple of call packages. Thats if anyone is paying the book price.

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
