So, if I've understood that correctly, if you have a BT land line and then register with 1899, you can then call
anyone with a BT / talktalk land line free of charge ?, is that so? it seem unbelievable, that's why I ask. Surely I've misunderstood the ad. |

True, but. Quote:
Prices are in pence per minute. Calls are billed per minute rounded to the nearest penny, include VAT and are subject to change. 1899 calls are subject to a 4p connection fee, calls within the UK via 1899 are subjected to a 5p connection fee

Thanks but that is sending text through the internet and not through a landline. I believe BT give a text allowance but the package is to expensive.

Your not going to get much of a discount other than what you can find, as they all re-sell the BT Text service, even the cable service runs on the BT service. |
