Most networks dumped this years ago, apart from O2 being fairly recent, and given that mobile tariffs have dropped or contain more minutes, it would clearly be more difficult to sustain than it used to be.
You can find ways to call 0870 for from about 5 pence a minute, which isn't as bad as the network tariff for the calls
