And their call charge claims are ridiculous too ...

They claim cheapest UK calls at 1p/minute - I currently pay 0.5p. They also add a 10p call set up, my provider charges 1p

from 19p for International calls - I pay 0.6p to te US for landline and 1.2 for mobile, Germany and Italy, 0.3p which is less than the UK.

Pulse8broadband call charges are very low too. I had my line with them when on BT Wholesale backhaul with AAISP.

1ppm inc vat daytime. 0.08ppm evenings and night-time. No call setup charges. Add £1pm for caller display. (Unless things have changed recently).

Impressively cheap but it looks like a £3 a month minimum cover charge? Bit too rich for me...

I've used localphone.com a bit who are ok for uk rates but the quality is a bit average. Mainly they are just for me to catch the rare person who dares to make an outgoing landline call. I've been on £2 starter credit for about two years so its working ok so far...

I pay only 0.7p/min to UK numbers and 0.9p to US landlines and £ 0.009 to US mobiles. 0.9p to UK mobiles with (some) others costing a lot more at 10.3p. There is a call setup charge which shows as 3.9 cent so it looks like it charges in US dollars which is something like 2.7p. They do provide SMS texts but I doubt most would use that, they cost 4.3p each. I have been using them for some years.


The UK calls are very slightly higher than that other service, 0.7p compared with 0.5p, but this one does not charge a monthly fee of £3.60. Call credits need to be purchased to use it and I purchased the minimum €5 of credits a couple of years ago and still have €2.44 left. smile

So you are buying in euros, paying in dollars, and comparing with sterling 😵. In a thread where the conversation ended in April 2020 smile.

PS: A euro is comprised of 100 cents, so your assumption about dollars is probably mistaken and you are paying in euros.

Connections: OnePlus 8 Pro, 4G max 165Mbps down, 24Mbps up on Three Mobile, and B311 4G router, tbb tests normally 35-45Mpbs down, 65Mbps off-peak, 9-24 up.
