    I use cheapestchat from my mobile(o2)
    Great rates.
    USA: 0.4p/min
    India:4.4p/min
    Israel: 0.6p/min
    Australia: 0.6p/min

    dial 0904 971 0709 to top up £1 on your account then dial
    the access number - 020 8497 0709

    can even dial the 09 number from a landline (and assign the topup to your mobile)

    Also Stacey do you have an idea of how many customers you have lost since O2 began to withdraw 08xx numbers from inclusive minutes earlier this year?


    No but I do know that the money it was costing for the 0844/0855 etc type numbers was about £5mil a week.

    Do you know is that £5mil worth of International calls they missed out on charging for, or 5mil they handed over to the 08x providers?

    If it's the former, someone should tell them money savers would not make international calls at their rates except in emergencies!

    So the money people pay for their monthly call allowance is not used to pay for the calls they make?

    Just received a bill from Orange which stated the following at the bottom:

    ' a small change to call charges:

    Just to let you know we're updating the way we charge for call forwarding services. From 15 December all call forwarding services beginning with 07 will no longer be covered by your plan's inclusive any network minutes and will be charged at 20p per minute. This also includes numbers with the following prefixes - 079730, 078225, and 079785. Numbers beginning with 070 will continue to be charged at up to 55p per minute. Don't worry - this only applies to call forward services, calls to regular mobile numbers beginning with 07 don't change at all.

    For details, please see the pay monthly guide at www.orange.co.uk/service_plans/paymonthly '

    Anyone know if we can cancel our contracts early? or whether or not this will effect calling NOODLE?
