The live box is to do with your  BB. It does not affect your landline calls.

1899 is now cheaper then 18866 for uk landline calls.

For cheaper calls to Spain see www.niftylist.co.uk

To call Spain, and most of other international destinations, is cheapest by using those dial (call) through telecom companies, and you can check latest prices, besides niftylist, on other everyday updated websites for cheapest calls, like loiol, martin lewis tools and cheapestinternationalcalls.

Here are links to Spain:

compare phone call prices  to Spain on cheapestinternationalcalls
compare phone calls to Spain on loiol
compare calls on Martin Lewis callchecker

choose the one you like most, all 4 have a quite different layout Wink

There's one dial-through provider (Dialwise) offering a ½p/minute rate to Spanish landlines again.

0844 200 1515.

After years of ignoring govt. guidelines & RIPPING OFF Council Tax payers using 0845 numbers, Essex County Council changed to 0345 numbers on 2 November 2015

You could use a company like Voipstunt. They are currently offering Spanish landlines for free.
If you don't want to or can't talk through your pc (lack of power, equipment etc) then you can use their callback service which will cost you about 1.5p for the connection to your landline. For a max of 60 mins.
Effectively you will be able to have a 60 min call for 1.5p.
It is the same for UK landlines.
They do have a limit of 300 mins within a 7 day period.
I regularly use this service for Hungary, and have only suffered two occasions of poor quality.
www.voipstunt.com
There are others. Just check to see who does the most amount of countries, that you require, for free.

Angry   1899 are not much good.

Everytime that I try to sign up, I get an e-mail saying ...


"Unfortunately your 1899 internet registration has failed.

Due to lack of capacity it is currently not possible to register. Please wait at least 6 weeks before attempting to register again. Our apologies for the nconvenience."


... and it's been going on for months!

Thats because they have capacity problems in certain areas.

You can normally get round it. Wink

Sign up again using a mobile number and once you get the email saying you are registered go back into your profile and add your landline number and all should be well.

Cry   It does not work with Windows 98.

XP is OK and I think that it also works with 2000.

Hmmmmm, 5 hours of calls per week  Huh  is that good?  I remember there being other VoIP providers out there or is Voipstunt the only one to offer international destinations?

Well I did say like Voipstunt. It was a company I'm satisfied with and can offer an opinion of.
Of course there are others offering free calls to foreign destinations. It would appear that 5 hours within a 7 day period is now the norm. All of these offer Spain for free.
VOIPCHEAP
INTERNETCALLS.COM
NETAPPEL
VOIPCHEAP.COM
VOIPSTUNT
VOIPDISCOUNT
SPARVOIP
POIVY
SIPDISCOUNT
VOIPBUSTER
FREECALL    are all branches from the same tree, but with varying offers and prices. It pays to shop around if you do a lot of international calling.

I have Word sheet showing all the free desinations that the above offer, and am currently working on the complete price list for all. If you want the free one, pm me with your address and I'll send it.

If you have a broadband internet connection sign up to vonage.co.uk after set up costs and carriage is 7.99 monthly for unlimited local and national calls - of course it excludes the 0870 and 0845 and mobiles the way ive set my system up is have

skype and voange and mobile phone using all three helps reduct any extra costs and now thanks to this website im seeing a large reduction in my bills already and will be able to smile again -

bye using three of for diffrent phone systems your able to save money.
