No on the 21st May at 10:14 am a 5 second call which was most likely connecting to orange answer phone was 6p so it appears to have changed.

Im on the BT mobile saver and get 33% off all calls to mobiles.
http://www.productsandservices.bt.co...?topicId=23730 Im on the Unlimited weekend plan with mobile saver. I been on that 13 months. I pay a £1 more than it says on the BT site for I dont pay by Direct Debit. I make most of my evening and weekend calls via Broadband Talk though.
I see what you mean by it even costs you if moblile is unanswerd and it come up there voice mail for you to leave a message.

First you said an unanswered call. Now you say it was answered, just happens it was voicemail.

As you aren't charged for unanswered calls.

Prices to call mobiles went up recently, also the BT Mobile saver option is poorer value for money than it was as not only did prices rise, the savings by using the option dropped too.

You have to pay £1.46 each and every month to then try and save money.

Where as if you route you mobile calls through Call 18185, not only is there no monthly fee, the cost of calling mobiles is cheaper than what it is with the BT Mobile Saver. (Use the non-BT access number for weekends and it means instead of 5p/min to any UK mobile (including 3) it is 4p/min + 4p connection. Weekdays you can use the short access code and it's 6p/min + 5p connection.
