Yet another Price Increase by 18185
Oct 7th, 2016 at 5:45pm
 
The cost of indirect calls to UK 01/02/03 numbers has yet again increased.  This time from 1p to 1.2p a minute in addition to the 5p connection charge.

www.18185.co.uk

The 'sister' services 1899 and 18866 have also increased to the same rate.

(Thanks to Mike R for bringing this to my attention)

It  was only last  increased in Aug 2016 see

http://www.saynoto0870.com/cgi-bin/forum/YaBB.cgi?num=1471060771

If you dont invest in a inclusive bundle you could consider a callback service for cheaper  01/02/03 calls .

 EG Localphone  call would cost 2 legs x 0.5p= 1p a minute    No connection fee.

Its been pointed out on another forum that you can still get 01/02/03 calls at the old 1p rate on 18185  if you use the 0808 Freephone Number.

Yes, using 0808 1 703 703 (freephone) or 020 81 80 2828 (if you have inclusive minutes).

If you had inclusive minutes you wouldnt need to call an access number to call inclusive numbers. Wink

You're right, of course.  I was thinking of our calls to Spain - which would now be 2p/minute via 18185 but only 1p/minute via one of the access numbers.

However, as I've now been pointed in the direction of 0161 311 31111 for those calls ...
