Not only is this ill-timed, it is also wrong in respect of timing.
Calls made during the working day are not likely to be made under the terms of the BT weekends only plan (as calls to geographic numbers would incur a penalty charge). The note should refer to the most popular (widely used) BT call plan - Unlimited Anytime, which is the plan that someone making a weekday daytime call from their landline with a BT call plan would almost certainly be using.
For the cost of a call to a 0844, 0843 or 0871 (or 0872/3) number it makes no difference, as the rates are the same for all three call plans at all times. There are however many who could use this suggestion to give the penalty charge incurred for a weekday daytime call as the equivalent cost of calling a geographic number.
