    789 is free until you select option to talk to CS rep..then calls at standard rate

    No it doesn't charge at standard rate, it just costs a one off charge of 10p no matter how long you're on to them

    Incredible, the OP calls Virgin " robbing swines " yet doesn't know about the 789 facility.

    All info is freely available on the Virgin Web Site.:rolleyes:

    Even more incredible that the OP did not bother to check what they charged if he exceeded his inclusive minutes, before he did so.
    Then had the audacity to call them robbing swines when all they were doing was charging the set amounts he agreed to when he signed the contract.
  • I dont think my phone timer can be reset actually, but I will have a look.

    From the on-line user manual, look at the bottom of page 106 where it says Call Duration.
    It tells you how to reset the timers.
