The table actually says:
Quote:0844 / 0845 / 0870 / 080 / 084 numbers | 8p /min |
0843 / 0871 / 0873 numbers | From 20p /min/call |
I suspect that the 0843 is erroneous as "084" appears in the line above, and that would make sense, meaning that 0843 is 8p/min, just like 0844 is.
On the subject of Tesco Pay as you Go in general, it looks good value.
Pay as you go with free credit tariff offers one triple credit per month. So for users who only top-up once (or less than once) a month, their call charges are effectively a third of the published rates.
- Geographic, 03 and UK mobile calls are 25 pence per minute and with triple credit that makes them effectively 8.33 pence per minute. Texts are 10 pence per message, which effectively makes them 3.33 pence per message with triple text.
- 05 / 0844 / 0845 / 0870 / 080 / 084 numbers are 20 pence per minute which makes them 6.67 pence per minute, which is cheaper than some landline providers.
There is also the
Pay as you go lite tariff which offers geographic, 03 and mobile calls at 8 pence per minute and texts at 4 pence per message.
05 / 0844 / 0845 / 0870 / 080 / 084 numbers are 8p/min.
