BT Smart Talk App.
Hi
Have loaded this app on an iPhone but now having done so wonder if this is really suitable.
The mobile is on a pay monthly contract with 200 minutes of free calls per month.
On the free evening and weekend calls contract on the BT landline.
So this app will be great in the evening and weekend as the calls will be routed via our BT contract so will be free (<60mins) but what happens during the day (M-F) are the mobiles calls via BT as well?
Eg: Once installed, are all calls day/night/evening/weekend via the BT contract? If so, how do I use my allocated 200 minutes on my mobile contract?
Also, noticed that any calls duration time gets added to the mobiles total time stat so it going to be difficult to keep tabs on how much of the 200 minutes would be left.
Any clarification/advice/suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks

App uses VOIP only so will only use (gobble up) your data allowance unless connected via wifi - it will not impact on your 200 mins call allowance. So should not be recorded as voice telephone call
If you call via the app during the day you will be charged by BT their normal charges as if your at home ( if not using wifi then you will also incur date usage on your mobile)
There is a help section within the app which may explain it better than this short post0
