Free International phone calls?

Has anyone tried this service "freeworldcall.co.uk" which purports to use inclusive minutes on your call plan to allow you to call internationally via a UK 0845/0870 access number?  No signup or subscription - seems too good to be true.....

Check the cost of making an 0845/0870 number before going any further.

These are generally chargeable at a considerable rate unless you are lucky enough to have them included in your call package. My wife has these included in her old t-mobile contract but I have doubts as to whether more recent contracts do. My Plusnet contract certainly doesn't.

Correct. My EE SIM only plan charges between 11p and 50p per minute for 0870 and 0845 calls. 
0800, 0300, 0808 calls etc are 'free' (taken from your allocated calls minutes allowance).
