If you aint got, or don't want Skype, then try:
www.telediscount.com
1p per minute to Australia at all times (after BT'S typical 4p Connection Charge) Just dial the prefix number then the number you want to call in Oz. Checked my bill and can confirm no hidden charges

Re: Cheapest way to call Australia
I know talk talk are doing something at the moment where you get free anytime calls to local and national and some international(includes OZ) line rental and braodband for £35ish pounds a month. You can be on the phone for 59mins and then put the phone down and call back and it is included in the price.
Look on thier website.

Try this site, 0.5p per minute to an Australian land line. Used it several times, easy to use and reliable.

Hi
Other than all the other good suggestions we use Go talk and have done for many years. We like it because it is cheap and you pre-pay up front and whe your credit is gone it is gone.
