You can use our cheap international calls service if you’re under 18 but please get the bill payers permission first.

We will credit you with calling credit (as per our tariff) and issue a PIN to that value with a UK geographic landline telephone number to access the service.

Calls to the access number 0161 328 7777 will be charged as per your usual mobile or landline price plan to a UK geographical landline, and may be part of your monthly inclusive minutes allowance. Please check with your service provider to confirm this.

Calls are charged by the minute and are subject to a 5p connection charge on all calls (all quoted prices are inclusive of VAT, and apply 24 hours a day, 7 days a week when using the 01 access number). Rates are effective from 14th November 2024 and may be subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to terminate any call if we consider it is being made unlawfully or fraudulently.
