18866 - impressed!!!

Just got my first BT bill since using 18866 and I'm £58 in credit - woo hoo!!!! :T

My average 18866 usage has been £10 a month. The BT bill also has a month of normal usage (pre 18866) so that should mean that my next quarterly bill will be even lower!!

Feeling very pleased with myself! :D

    Good for you.

    If you make mobile to landline calls consider using https://www.1899.com at peak/evening rate 10p a min instead of 12p.

    Also you are able to get free evening and weekend calls at the moment by using a supplier like https://www.justdialsaver.com

    not sure if you meant your bill was down by £58 or you are in credit with BT by £58 .if you are in credit by £58 you can ask BT for this back .
  • Hiya,

    I am in credit by £58, but I think I might ask for it back when I'm a bit short of cash!

    Ruyareece - Ask for the money now. Its a free 'phone call. Why give BT an interest free loan?

    I have been too complacent up to now! I use my home phone a lot for work related calls, and although I can claim then back, sometimes I am too lazy to record them all in detail.

    So, perhaps it's time for me to start using 18866!
    Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.

    Why not say use 1899 for home and 18866 for work that way you get seperate invoices,handy for accountancy purposes ;)
