Somehow someone's got their decimal places all wrong on the 0871 & 0844 quote & even if you do correct the decimal places it makes them the same cost as 0870 & 0844 which can hardly be correct.
How is anyone expected to know the real cost of call & how NGNs work when even the carriers own staff don't know?
Needless to say, I've requested clarification
