they dial 0844 462 9393, then your international number when prompted: 00 61 8 9 __________ # (always press # at the end of the number)
& voila!

Calls cost ONLY 2p/minute !!!

Better still go to:

and pay 1p per min to landlines or 13p per min to mobiles! ...

Tried and tested! ...

Calling cards is about as good as it gets I think.

I've had no real joy with a few tho inc 'Talk Tomato' and another which the name escapes me.

I've been recommended a 'Gotalk' one which I have, but not tried yet. Calls to the UK are a few cents per min I've been told, but as I say not tried it yet.

I've just been in carphone warehouse asking about Talk Talk for my MIL. Apparently for £21 a month you get free broadband for life, phone line rental and ALL calls are free including calls to AUS and lots of other overseas country's

Yep, that's all true. BUT - as always - make sure you read the "small print". The calls are only free for so many minutes - have forgotten the exact number, say it's xx minutes. After that time has elapsed you get charged! The "small print" says if you want to avoid to get charged, hang up before you get to xx minutes and re-dial.
