Been on the money saving expert website and discovered VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) :
http://www.voipcheap.co.uk/en/index.html it enables you to make free phone calls via the internet. It really does work, all you need is a headset with a microphone. The download only takes seconds with broadband. According to their website even dial up can be used. Just register and wait until your application is approved via e-mail. Pay £5 with your credit card and you can call anywhere in the UK for free. Even Australia is free. The fiver is for calls that do cost money
Mrs Glenleven is most impressed - she was very doubtful but is now hooked. Apparently there are others but this one is free to use. The only hassle is booting up the computer but once your booted up it’s piece of cake. Believe after an hour you are disconnected, but you just dial again.
“Skype” appears to be the biggie at the moment but their calls are not totally free.
All the calls I am making appear to be crystal clear as I always ask - Don’t know how long the free UK landline calls will last for but so far so good.
