Free International Calls to Nigeria from your UK mobile phone
Okay I have caught your attention, so let me explain a few things:
1. This is not a scam or anything illegal.
2. It is not available on all UK mobile phone networks.
3. It is not really free, you will use your cross network minutes to cover the cost of the call.
4. You can use this for other countries, but not all countries will be cost effective.
Now the details:
Those of you in the UK know there are various mobile phone packages that give you various amounts of cross network minutes to use on a monthly basis for a fixed fee.
Well there are a few companies that will allow you to make international calls by calling a 07 number which many network operators classify as a mobile phone number.
I currently use Your Call, but there are others out there.
As I said earlier, not all networks allow this, T Mobile and 3 will charge you for calling these numbers, but Virgin which I use don't, and I think the others don't either, but you will have to check that by trying the number first for a short call and see if it is deducted from your inclusive minutes or not.
This will be good for calling places like Nigeria or other expensive places, but unless you really have one of those packages that gives you 900 minutes or more , or you regularly don't use up your inclusive minutes, then it is not cost effective for calling places like the USA (there are landline numbers that offer the USA calls at 1p per minute, I currently call the US free on Talk Talk).
Try it out, and see, I hope this information helps someone.
