> Cheap International calls from UK?
Bookmark topic
Hi ive just been on the phone for over a hour to a european coutry and the cost im dreading, I used Telewest as it's our homeline provider and the prices for international calls is riddiculous
I was wondering is there any top up prepaid sim cards in the UK that offer cheap evening, daytime calls to europe, oviousley the local networks o2, T-Mobile, Orange and Vodafone are completey kak for this as I know. Im looking for something like those of Oftel and others without line rental etc.. just a Pre-Pay sim will do where I can top it up and use it for make cheap calls:-)
Please help (Im not looking forward to my Bill this month

)

Here's something that might interest you,pre-paid and all from your nearest CPW: Mobileworld. (I think they use T-Mobile's roaming)
Check the international rates out:

"...completely kak..." Interesting choice of words. You speak any other languages, besides English?

"ok that'll be super.. have to findout how much to Germany
btw UK landlines ennit the mobile calls are expenesive
rite well better get of to bed
n8 all"
I know, i spent a few hundred calling US a few times!!
Ok, calling Gerrrmany is 7p To Landline
& 20p To Mobiles
And you need to make 1 call every 60 days to keep it active.
Hope that helps

Depending on your network and tariff, I find
http://www.yourcallworld.com/Default.aspx very good. I'm on o2 and have not been charged a penny for using this service. The minutes just come off your monthly allowance.
Or you could go to

Hi all
Thanks for all your suggestions
@ KK... Yeah I think I will go for that 1 7p a min is good.. better than 38p per min of my telewest phone
wish never swapped to them now... BT was cheap as chips for international calls
@ Soul. That first link sounds intresting... are you sure theres no strings there
@ I was looking at that cheap calls site but im put of by having to take a contract with anyone
already have a o2 contract.. ive enquired to them about cheap calls abroad to but I think they wont be able to offer anything suitable for my needs

As I said, i've checked my bill online and i've asked a couple of customer service agents and it's billed as a normal x network mobile call. Give it a try. Try a 1 minute call abroad and then check your bill online or phone up cs and ask whether you've been charged. you could also try
