Recommended Posts

Via BT;

 

0844 428 40 40 four pence per minute to landlines

0844 566 0 566 five pence per minute to mobiles

 

Quite possibly included in your O2 bundle as well as being rated as a Standard Call on O2.

 

Charged at up to 15p per minute on Orange. Prolly still worth it for some.

Check with your provider.

I've seen this number before - Telestunt, isn't it?

 

What's the call quality like, and how on earth do they make any money..?

 

I've been using Telediscount for a while now, (0871 7 723 723 - 7p/min), and the call quality is nearly always v.good.

 

Must give these other guys a try some time - you never know.

Telestunt/Telediscount/18866/1899 are all under the same umbrella company.

 

You will have to check with Telewest as to their charges. Though on a cursory check it appears that they charge 5p for 0844 and 10p for 0871...

 

I use Telestunt regularly and have never had a problem with their call quality.

 

The 'IDT Unity card' rate for the card mentioned is 11.1p per minute for 0800 access. 7.1p per minute with 0207 access.

 

Taking into account a 40% discount on the price of the card, that would leave the price at 6.6p per minute for 0800 access and 4.26p per minute for 0207 access.

Of course this is only if you find the card at a 40% discount of face value.

ie. 3 pounds paid for the 5 pounds card.

 

IDT cards

 

May be worth a mention that both T Mobile, OneTel mobile and H3G charge 0871 numbers at 10p per minute at all times, allowing the use of the Telediscount number to call Thailand mobile numbers.

Unity Card T&Cs:

 

The rates are based on £5, £10 & £20 cards. Rates are in pence per minute, including VAT and apply at all times. A per minute charge will be added to your phone bill by your service provider. Call charges are rounded to the nearest minute. A 4p per minute surcharge applies on calls using 0800 access. A 13p per minute surcharge applies from payphones using the new number 0800 032 2851. A 25p per minute surcharge will still apply from payphones, using the old payphone numbers. A daily 2p maintenance charge applies. The card expires 90 days after first usage.

 

Overall, They are not bad value if you do get them for 3 pounds.
