    Used them for years. Never had a problem, even when speaking to people on the other side of the world.

    Generally, I agree that the quality is fine - the major issue I have when using 18185, is that sometimes friends/relations don't answer because the call has shown up on their Caller Display as "International"

    The phone number is first (at the top ) then the customer number.

    I would check out Plusnet's phone prices as they aren't cheap either. Maybe a whole penny cheaper than the new BT prices for call setup etc. Still a rip off.
