I am using Lycatel for my international calls. You can open an account with £10. You only pay for the time you actually spend talking(rounded up to minutes). Call rates are US/Can 1/2p, Ind 1p,Pak 3p, europe 1/2p. No connection charge, no maintenance charge and no time limit on using the money up. You get a 0207 access number so it comes out of inclusive minutes. Stumbled across this while complaing about their calling card. I recommend it.

If I have stop the clock (vodaphone) does that mean I only use 3 mins of my inclusive minutes for an hour long call to make an INTERNATIONAL call in the evenings or weekends) ?

If you mean to call via a landline access number, then this would qualify, but if you want to dial directly to the destination you'd have to check the stop-the-clock T&C, but my guess is that such calls would be excepted

I was with Lebara but I've just moved over to Nomi mobile to call Thailand is 4p/min, UK landlines 5p/min, texts worldwide 10p/each and 10p/min to mobiles.

Not bad eh?

Dialtosave problem - I paid £5 by txt on my mobile, was told I had the credit, followed their instructions to dial the 020 number and then the north Cyprus mobile number (using free minutes) and just got the dialling tone. Tried again and discovered that now I had £4.80 left - expensive dialling tone.

I then spent the day explaining the problem three times and all I got was a suggestion that my number didn't work. Told them I had subsequently successfully tried their 0871 number (15p/min on my mobile) and from then on they ignored me.

This left me wondering how I get my money back from a company which only has an online helpdesk as a contact.

Tried lots of other ways to phone north Cyprus but I have no landline so I'm restricted in the ways I can phone.

After a lot of messages to and from the DialtoSave helpdesk the 3.5p/min UK mobile to north Cyprus mobile service now works. It's an excellent connection and the cheapest I can find.

I used Rebtel for the first time last night to call a mobile in Malta. Whilst it was a lot cheaper for me calling in the UK, it cost my friend EUR 4.00 for 10 minutes. We had to hang up because goodness knows how much it would have cost for the hour. Any ideas the best way of talking mobile-to-mobile, UK to Malta without use of a PC in Malta? Thanks

OK so this Rebtel thing. I have signed up and on a vodafone contract that has Free landlines.

My folks are in teh USA so I want to talk to them. I have paid $10 which came out at 7.09 GBP. - I am happy to pay for the calls at the advertsied 1p a min to the USA. BUT I really do not watn to pay Voda for these calls of course.

Does anyone know if Voda has the same o2 isms in stopping these 0203 numbers?

Thanks

On The Site Says When I Make My First Call The Called Person Should See The Local Number On Their Mobile, Hung Up And Call Me Back In First 15 Sec. I Just Tested This And The Number Called Person Receives Is My Mobile Number In Uk Not His Local Number. How Is That?
