Sipgate - local calls?
Excuse my ignorance - I know that outgoing calls from my Sipgate
account are as per published tarrif - but are calls into my geographic number local calls to the caller regardless of where they are in the UK?.... or do they still pay the relevant rate as set by their service provider? Thanks Mick -- Mick |

The caller is charged whatever their normal rate to 01/02 numbers is. This is usually (but not always) irrespective of where they are in the UK, but they would have to check with their service provider. Ivor |

For example BT evening and weekend charges 5.5p for the first hour to call 01 and 02 numbers whether they are to the next door neighbour or someone 200 miles away. Primus 2 Saver doesn't charge for evening and weekend calls to 01 and 02 numbers unless the call is over 90mins. 1899 charges 3p for the entire 01 or 02 call whether it is 'local' or 'national'. -- DVD rental: www.southeastbirmingham.co.uk/dvd PAYG Mobile Offers: www.southeastbirmingham.co.uk/payg Items for sale: www.dodgy-dealer.co.uk |
