Does anyone have a view on this service offering ? On the face of it, it seems reasonable for some international destinations but then they fail to mention that the cost of calls to 0844 is more than 2p from many providers.
http://www.08direct.co.uk/cheap-international-calls.php The cost of calling 0844 numbers from a BT landline varies between ½p and 5p per minute depending on the 4th, 5th and 6th digits of the number (see
the BT Specialised Numbers Price List) but, in this case, the firm allocates 0844 numbers which are charged at g9 (2p per minute including VAT at all times) rate.
Some other calls providers follow the BT Price List - but others don't. Mobile providers always charge considerably more.
