No, this is hopelessly out of date!

Years ago, pay monthly subscribers could call 0800 numbers for free.

Similarly, the bean counters had their way and Orange Everyphone was scrapped. This allowed pay monthly users to divert their number to another Orange mobile number or a landline number with no charge for any calls that were diverted.

None I know of.

Plus there's Payback for contributing to their Community forums (I was astonished to find I had earned £10.02 in 5 days by making 22 posts).

When I asked about other providers offering such good rates, I was referring to calls to UK mobiles (on and off-net) and UK landlines as these are the main types of calls made.

Asda Mobile:

Landline/03/all mobile/0800   8ppm
