Bulldog and 18866

Hello

I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am interested in gettin
Bulldog Broadband (inc line rental). Does the 18866 service (or 080
170 7788 alternative number) work with this company?


Many Thanks

Chri

Yes it does (the 0800 does), but you would be better off with the 1899
number (www.1899.com) for peak calls as they charge a flat 3p whereas 18866
charge per minute.

For calls to where ? 18866 has a 2p connection fee, 1899 charges 3p, but
the cost per call after that can be from 0p/min (for UK geographic landline
numbers) on both of them, so for UK calls (only) one might pay 50% more when
using 1899 compared with 18866. All depends on where one calls. Peter M.

Sorry I should have added UK calls. 18866 charge 0.5p/per minute on their
0800 number whereas 1899 is 0p. That is the differenve betwenn them.

Not so. Read Deag's post again. Deag is referring to per minute
charges when accessing 18866 via 0808 number. You are referring to
charges when accessing via 18866 or 1899 prefix. See
http://www.call18866.co.uk/mobilerates.php for details.

Thanks - ah yes, I can understand the earlier comment much better now :-)
I was thinking of the indirect access charges, using the 1xxx prefixes.
Sorry for any confusion to anyone else! Peter M.

You can not use the 1xxx numbers from Bulldog though, I know as I have
Bulldog.
