Default Chea phone costs from UK to USA

Hi everyone,

For those of us with loved ones in the U.S. that we call daily the costs can be pretty large.

Anyway I used to use Onetel but have since switched to these guys:

http://www.telediscount.co.uk

They are 1p a minute which is awesome. JPlus theres no registration required just a BT line. Just thought i'd share it with you all.

Cheers

James

I've also just switched from onetel - but I found www.call18866.com
it's also 1p per minute to USA and 1p per minute to USA mobiles - this tariff applies at all times.


I haven't tried telediscount, but I note from their site that calls to USA on weekdays between 8am and 6pm are charged at 3.95p/min. Not a problem for most people, but worth bearing in mind.

My mother has just signed up with 18866. Seems to be legit.

I also noticed the small print on telediscount:
Local rate: Sa-Su: 1p/min
Mo-Fr 6pm/8am: 1p/min
Mo-Fr 8am/6pm: 3.95p/min

Still quite cheap but not entirely honest.
