I use First America Gareth. They work from mobiles too. £5 will get you about 100 minutes of chattin' time.

I use IDT Unity, which is 250 minutes for £5, or Eagle (340 minutes) or Super Swifty, only on sale in a shop on Brewer Street, which gives about 400 minutes on the 0845 number!

Don't buy Chi-tel because it didn't work for me.

do they work from mobiles at that price mark?

Gareth, it's not the call from the mobile that matters - you just call a regular local number, so your mobile company charges you whatever it normally charges you for a local number (I get a certain no. of minutes free, for example, so it could be as little as 0p). That's all you pay, though of course you use up your minutes on the phone card.

Or at least I've always assumed this is how it works.

Has anyone tried Jajah?

Vonage lets you call the Britain for free. I always want to exercise this privilege but have yet had an opportunity.
