Cheapest way to call Ireland?

tg99

Hi,

Need to make calls to Ireland and so wondering if anyone can advise on the cheapest way to do this to avoid the standard expensive overseas costs incurred when calling direct? It is a landline I will be calling and I can call from either a uk landline or uk mobile.

(From having had a bit of a look already it seems that there are options to pay for some call credit and then be able to call at say 1p per minute.)

There are many options to explore.

when I have had to phone Ireland I brought a prepay card from the post office, £5 credit, you dialed a uk number then entered in the details from card and money came off that.

The costs quoted for calls to 084 and 087 numbers are mostly incorrect as they have not been updated for the new call charge system that came into effect on 1 July 2015.

Only those where both the Access Charge and the Service Charge for the 084 or 087 number are shown have any chance of being anywhere near correct.
