    JustDialSaver Lite (free evening & weekend geographical calls with no monthly fee) was discussed here, and their capped mobile call charges was discussed here.

    It wasn't that long ago that JustDialSaver was noticed so not many people have switched over yet and MSE Martin hasn't mentioned it yet neither which we are not sure why!?!
  • Do they charge a connection fee??

    Not sure its probably more of a minimum call charge. Couldn't seem to find much about it on their website though. They probably do at about 4/5p (pretty standard price with regards to minimum call charges)

    I have asked this question of them via email. Their site states: -

    5p minimum call charge applies

    This does not apply to the FREE weekend and evening calls as confirmed by their CS via email.

    I'm sure it never used to as I checked it a few times but I've noticed they've changed the design of their website now and it does mention it now.
  • hmmm not sure whether it's worth registering with them then. Might stick with 18866, unless I know for sure they don't charge any connection fee ect.

    Their newly designed website doesn't mention anything along the lines of a connection fee just a minimum call charge of 5p.

    For mobile calls during evening&weekends that you now aren't going to last more than 20mins then they are definitely the cheapest unless the call is likely to be a very short call.

    Their website here mentions about the cost cap for mobile calls but you need to view this page (near bottom) and select relevant network for per minute costs remembering the maximum call charge will be 20p for all mobile calls that are under 20mins in length.
