Title: Telediscount - please help
Post by russellyeo on Jun 3rd, 2009 at 2:25pm
I use the Telediscount service to call my wife when she's abroad working.

I'm sure you know the type of thing...I can country specific 0845 number (depending on which country I'm wanting to call) and then after a message enter the number of the hotel in which my wife's staying...

Anyway, can any of you help me find the geographic number for any of the 0845 numbers below:

0844 4629595 - the number for Thailand and Hong Kong
0871 999 4994 - the number for calling mobiles cheaply abroad
0844 4286464 - the number for landlines in South Africa
0911 5012525 - the number for UK mobiles in South Africa
0844 8617879 - the number for Singapore

Thanks so much

I'm sure that there won't be any geographic numbers for these as they are provided to enable you to call international numbers far cheaper than using the international code direct!

For example the 0844 number for Thailand will cost 2p per minute compared to 75p per minute dialling direct from a BT phone.

I realise that. It's just that I'd like to use my mobile (using my inclusive minutes) to make these calls.

Here's hoping anyway!

The 0844/0871 numbers are the only source of income for this provider. Use of any other geographical numbers would therefore result in service being obtained without payment being made.

This is a reasonable use for such numbers. There's no such thing as a free lunch.

If it's international call providers you're looking for, then I suggest you look at MoneySavingExpert.com. Providers such as 18185 offer 020 geographical numbers and the charge extra on top of this.

South African landlines are 3 pence per minute plus 4 pence connection. Calls will come from inclusive minutes as well.
