Free mobile calls to other countries, is this new?

I was just googling for cheap calls and came across this website which claims to give you free calls to other countries out of your free minutes: http://www.lovefreecalls.com/

Is this for real? It sounds too good to be true .

I called the number (I'm on Orange and have free minutes) and I got a prompt to dial and called my brother in Germany, so it works, but will I get charged loads?

Thanks!

This one works fine, I just wanted to know if Orange will charge me for calling them. It says to check.

I'm on T-Mobile and have never been charged anything other than free minutes for using the yourcallworld service.

These services have been around for ages their are loads of suppliers and their agents. Google "07744 International Calls " and your see.

It will come out of your inclusive Orange x-net contract minutes,and after they are used up your be charged.

But the calls are not really FREE because you usually pay for your x-net minutes.So lets say you had 400 minutes and they cost £30 a month. The call would be costing 7.5p a minute.

T-Mobile/Virgin are throttling traffic to these numbers at moment.

Why do they bother? It's not losing them any money -- I'd not dream of using my mobile to call overseas if it wasn't for these services!

Great! I have one of those free contracts though, so it really is free, hehe.

Thanks!
