MobileTalk will save you a lot of money on all your international calls and below are some price comparisons. The prices used are up to date as of September 2008 and are published prices by each of the mobile operators quoted. However it is important to note that your contract or pre-paid tariff might have a different price and we recommend that you contact your operator to ensure you are paying the minimum to call a national landline number.
Each mobile operator tries to give variety in their tariff offerings, which usually does nothing more than confuse the Customer. The Connectivity Warehouse S.L. has researched the latest tariff offers (September 2008) for each of the main UK mobile operators and below give a comparison of what it would cost to call directly from your mobile – i.e. paying the standard international rates of your mobile operator – and what it would cost to call the same country using TCW MobileTalk
Remember, to use TCW MobileTalk you have to dial a local access number, which are always standard national landline numbers. The way to make the overall cost of your international call the lowest possible, using TCW MobileTalk, is to ensure your mobile tariff has the lowest rate charge to call a standard national landline number
