Question re Dialwise and NTL
message from ted_radioham on 29 Jun 2005
Dialwise quote 4p per minute to uk mobiles using 0844 428 46 46 number, I have checked on NTL tariff and it looks like p11 charge band at 130.00pm, wonder if anyone else checked or am I reading wrong please.

I have earlier contacted Dialwise to confirm if the cost is 4p per minute
with NTL, awaiting reply.

Anyone wanting to check the NTL prices, (the lists are hard to find), right
click on the following links and select 'Save target as' which should
download the pdf versions of the price list and Non Geographic Definitions
These might be different in differerent post code areas, as to get to these
lists, I had to enter my postcode

Just give up using NTL for calls. This type of poor information is one
of the many reasons I opened a One.Tel account with dialler box - now
NOT A SINGLE call goes via NTL.

At least One.Tel's pricing is clear and easy to find on their web
site. Compare how easy it is to see the 0844 rate with One.Tel
http://tinyurl.com/azdhq Now try NTL!

[Note: as a "default" routing for calls, One.Tel's "Standard UK Talk"
is cheaper than NTL's "3-2-1" plan for UK calls in every respect.]

The BT price list shows charges for numbers starting 084442 as 4.00
pence per minute at all times.

The list is currently unavailable owing to a site fault, but normally
if you go to www.bt.com and type 'special numbers' in the Search box, a
link to the price list will come up.

Although other operators may have different tariffs, the BT price list
is quite useful to get an idea of call charges.

I spoke to a rep and he agreed , after some investigation, that the
P11 entry between PG10 and PG12 in Non Geographic Definitions
table is incorrect and should read PG11. If that is so then it is 4p.

It does look like a incorrect designation but will it be charged at 4p or
130p pm ?. I have just spent ages speaking to a nice lady at NTL who is of
the same opinion, I have just made a call and she will check my account tmrw
night to see if it has overcharged. She will call me back as she did earlier
and let me know what the charge was, if wrong she will credit a/c. Guess
will have to see.
