There is not a weekend rate now, since 01-08-07 there is just a daytime and evening rate 7 days. Angry

For mobile, 0845 and 0870 calls that is. All other calls still have daytime/evening/weekend bands with BT.

Virgin Media, on the other hand, has only retained d/e/w time periods for geographical calls (and 03). All others only have daytime and evening times, and are charged up to the nearest whole minute.

That is if you are a customer of BT Together. Wink

Post Office Homephone and a large number of other WLR products on BT lines still treat the whole of the weekend as an off peak period.  But for how much longer given BT's Significant Market Power.................

But isn't this thread about BT scrapping its contact 0845/0870 numbers, NOT actually scrapping 0845 or 0870 numbers in total.

Surely if they don't believe their own customers should be using them then they shouldn't also be trying to foist them on customers who need to call other non telecoms businesses? Roll Eyes

Oh I know, BT probably makes the most from 0845 and 0870 calls to other providers, but if they can set the "marker" by discontinuing all theirs, they might be able to set a precedent for other companies.
