Just come across this service from Poketalk - it allows international calls for the cost of a local call from Cyprus. See here: www.poketalk.com/cyI've successfully managed to access it using the Japanese call through on the forum, if that be of help to anyone! Claims to allow calls for over 80 destinations.

I haven't checked if it would connect to the Irish callthrough.

Thanks korny88 for this find. I found that this number is inclusive in Talktalk international package. So we have now another option to make international calls.

If it connects to Spanish 902s, then this is interesting as it will be possible to connect to many destinations, including the Irish 700 service. Thanks for the report, Getcopy.

I have received one report that this service can no longer be reached. I have not tried myself. If any member can confirm, or contradict, this report, please post your findings below.
The same goes for anyone who knows what has happened please.
TIA.

I get "... number you dialed has not been recognised ...", either it is blocked OR the number it self is not working.

I received a text from Graham at lunch time, telling me that he found the Cyprus callthrough was working again, and it is still connecting to Spanish 902's. This information may be useful to TalkTalk users wishing to call India, as well as to others.

I have tested calling this service today, and found that it did not work. Graham has confirmed the same when calling from his TalkTalk line. If anybody knows what is happening, please post your report below.

The number given on http://www.poketalk.com/cy is for people living in Cyprus. If you live there use it. If not, look up the country code just as you would for any foreign destination. UK websites similarly give UK numbers, without specifying 0044 for foreigners!

You need to dial +357 followed by the callthrough number. I am able to access it using a voip carrier. Charge is the same as a mobile number in Cyprus
