GEO UK 1.25ppm, 2/3 world 1.85ppm, MOB UK & 2/3 world 8ppm

How we calculate our call costs

  • There is no connection charge
  • There is a minimum call charge of 3p (lower than most of the big players).
  • But there is no charge to call UK freephone numbers, or if the call does not connect.
  • At the end of the call we calculate the cost using the call length in seconds and the pence per minute rate
    (unlike some services we don't round call times up to the minute).
  • If there is a part of a penny, we round up to the next penny (e.g. 60 seconds call to Vodaphone UK costs 8p, 61 seconds costs 9p)
