We try and update this page as often as possible. However, with many different mobile tariffs across several networks things can change very quickly in the way networks charge for their calls.
If in doubt whether your contract allows you to call our access numbers free we recommend that you make a short call using our access number. After a couple of days check your online billing. If you do not have online billing call your mobile customer services, quote when the call was made and ask the operator to check your bill for the cost of calling the number. You do not have to tell them what the number was for.
If they tell you it was free from your inclusive minutes you may continue using the number. Please ensure you check this regularly.

How can I program the number
into my phone for one-touch dialling?
For convenience, you can store your mobiledialthrough number
in front of the numbers you call most ofternon your mobile
phone.
There are two ways to do this, you can either save the
number into the phone book on your phone in the regular
way, or you can edit the numbers in your phone book to
include the mobiledialthrough number and dial
using pause dialling. This can be done as follows:
On a Nokia phone: Step 1 Enter the mobiledialthrough number;
Step 2 Press * 3 times to show ÔpÕ (this
causes dialling to pause) ; Step 3 Enter your destination
number, including the full international code) For example:
08449 883 000 p 001 XXXX XXXX.
On a Seimens or Panasonic phone: Step
1 Enter the mobiledialthrough ;
Step 2 Press and hold Ô0Õ to
show Ô+Õ (this causes dialling
to pause) ; Step 3 Enter your destination
number, including the full international
code) For example: 08449 883 000 + 001
XXXX XXXX.
On a Motorola or Ericsson phone : Step 1 Enter the mobiledialthrough number
; Step 2 Press and hold to show ÔpÕ (this
causes dialling to pause) ; Step 3 Enter your destination
number, including the full international code) For example:
08449 883 000 p 001 XXXX XXXX.
Are there any other terms
or conditions I should know about?
There are a few other things to bare in mind. As we've
said, you must have inclusive minutes to benefit from
this service (pay-as-you-go customers will be charged
by their provider for the call so you should check how
much); you should check with the person who owns the
phone before you make the call (if it is not you); and
you should call the customer service number on the left
if you have any doubt that the number you are calling
is covered.
You should also come back to this regularly just to check
the destination list has not changed.
We are not responsible for any charges made on your bill. We do our best to keep this page updated and help you to save on your international calls but you must check with your provider if in doubt when dialling one of our access numbers.
Please see the important note at the top of this page.
