Useful links - to other service and product providers on the web
The web gets its name from links like these.
Our company has trust in the following companies which also do business
on the Web.
Bear in mind that although we cannot make any representations on their
behalf and cannot make recommendations without a full understanding of what
your business needs are - some of the links below may result in our
company receiving a small benefit for the traffic and business that we
generate.

An ADDITIONAL Telephone service IF you pay BT for
your landline.
As at Oct'08 they offer calls to:
- mobiles for 6p per minute (ppm)
- UK landlines for 5p - no extra ppm charge even for 2-3 hour calls!
- ideal for those people who regularly 'keep in touch'!
- UK 0870, 0845 at marginally better rates than BT
- approx. 30 worldwide destinations at less than 2ppm
- many countries at 1ppm or less - even to mobiles - US, China etc.
The minor irritation of dialling 18185 in front of any number is offset by
not just the cost but the fact that if you want to use BT for any call you
simply omit this (18185) prefix.

18185
also see/compare to:
18866
although I think it is slightly more expensive

| Contact organisations by telephone using a cheaper
number than 0870, 0845, 0844, 0871 etc.
that they may have provided to you on their literature, web site, bill etc..

A Broadband (BB) provider that allows you to:
- Start at full speed for £9.99/month AND, when you exceed
2GB/month usage - your BB just slows down (to 2-3 times Dial-up),
not stops! like some others. OR, extra bandwidth can be
bought per GB OR (Oct'08) take 15GB/m for £14.99/m.
- Keep your 'phone line with BT and therefore use 'really cheap' 'phone
services - see '18185' elsewhere on this page.
- 'Free' overnight usage (for downloads/file sharing) - midnight-8am
- Like all BB providers - other benefits such as your 'phone line is free
for incoming / outgoing calls and the fact that Broadband connections are
usually 'left on' and therefore much quicker to connect.
(See Fast PC startup using no power for much faster PC startup too!)

We have experience in using this technology but not bought credit to use
it in earnest as we do not have a significant need for calling abroad
that cannot be met by using 18185 as above.
If you choose to use this service then please let us know your experiences
GOOD or BAD - and we will modify this part of the page accordingly.
