Title: Sky Talk Freetime
Post by: ruz on August 14, 2010, 10:40:19 AM
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone on this forum at the moment has the Sky Talk Freetime package? ??? I will soon be getting  set to use this service.;DThese packages normally gives landline calls, so any local numbers may will be inclusive on this package. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has this service would be happy to get a number and make a test call to a number given and report back on whether it is inclusive or not.
Regards,
Ruz

All Skytalk Freetime offers is  inclusive evening and weekend  calls to numbers starting with 01, 02, 03 & 0870 numbers.Unlike other suppliers they dont offer inclusive calls to 0845 numbers.

They have recently followed BT and moved their evening call time band to start at 7pm.

From the 1/7/2010 they have banned access to indirect numbers like 1899/18185.

If you are just moving your calls to them you cant hop back to BT by using 1280.

If your moving your line rental to them and its unbundled your face difficulties if you decide to leave them.

Calls to their expensive customer service 0844 number on that tariff are chargeable at peak time.

Their TV prices increase in Sept 2010.
