Has anyone heard about this company? Basically they offer cheap calls worldwide, and then at the weekends if you ring 07744697697 and then dial your destination number, it will be billed as a normal mobile number or IT WILL BE INCLUDED IN YOUR INCLUSIVE MINUTES, which I find highly dubious. Has anyone had experience with this company?

There website is  misleading as far as the 07744 number is concerned.

The only network that still allows you to call 07744 numbers out of your inclusive minutes on some of there contracts is 02.( They will probaly start charging as well soon). T -Mobile have recently started charging for calls to these 07744 indirect access numbers and Vodafone,Orange,and 3 have done so for some while.

If you are looking to make intl calls out of your inclusive minutes visit
www.pre-dial.com  

click on free destination list.Where you will see  real Orange and O2 Mobile Numbers you can use out of your inclusive minutes to some destinations.

I tried ringing the number during the week, and got the message "this number will be charged at your normal rate. Please hold to continue..." but when I tried it at the weekend I didn't get that message. Hmmm.

Thanks for the info on this, however, once again it looks as though I've been thwarted by 3  >:(.

One site that I would recommend for cheap Intnl calls is www.budgetcom.co.uk. It works  :D

I got the impression that you wanted to call internationally from your mobile.Surely calls to Budgetcom,s access numbers are not allowed from 3 mobiles.The only network that includes calls to 0844/0870 numbers in there inclusive minutes is O2.

If you want to find the best rates to a particular country visit
www.niftylist.co.uk  
I say this because Budgetcom are not likely to offer the best rates to all countries.Where as one of there sister companies might.

Also you might like to consider using 1899/18866/ or18185.Or even all of them.

Thanks for that! I'd only been using budgetcom from a landline though, and as I thought it was the cheapest I thought I'd tell everyone about it. I now stand corrected!
