Has anyone got experience using the 0808 access number to make UK calls from a BT landline?
The website seems to suggest a 4p connection fee (with the 0808/020 access numbers). I've got my orchid dialler set to use the 0808 number to dial mobiles at weekends and I noticed that I was charged 7p for a sub-minute call.
I suspect the website is wrong (as it allegedly is for 0870 calls), but was hoping for some anecdotal evidence either way. I'm only using the 0808 number (as opposed to dialling 18185) because of the lower connection fee.
