Alternative for calls to kenya

I have family in Kenya and call them quite regularly from my land line via a 08445789700.  Is there an alternative??

No. This question comes up time and again, and our answer is always the same. The use of NGNs for cheap calls abroad is a legitimate use, and we will not attempt to find alternative numbers.

Admins: can something be put in the guide about international calling numbers and the fact that we won't find alternatives for them?

Don't take it as a telling off, but please understand the logic of the situation.

However, in answer to your question, yes there is an alternative number.
Your number is run by http://www.firstnumber.co.uk/international-calls/cheap-calls-to-Kenya/ at a price of 5p per min.
You could try any number from this page http://niftylist.co.uk/calls/to/kenya/landline/ ; starting from 3p per min. A 40% saving immediately.

0844 578 numbers are charged at 5p/minute at all times from a BT landline.

So, the answer to your question is yes, there are CHEAPER (3p/minute and 4p/minute) alternatives - see HERE.

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
