Save £££ when calling banks and any 0870 or 0845 numbers

Hi all,

This is my first thread but i think its a good one and i don't know if it has been covered before as i couldn't find it... How many people use Telephone banking and other services that force you to call 0845 or 0870 numbers?? I have been doing this for a long time but if you take 2 mins out and search the company website that you are trying to call, you will be given a number that says "INTERNATIONAL CALLERS" this will give u a UK LANDLINE number to call and these days we can use this out of our free minuites on our mobiles or even the landline... it saves me a lot of cash as i use these all the time...

Let me know if it saves you £££££
