Hi LWC,

I was looking at this but the biggest problem is that you can't direct to a mobile phone for free so its no good if your on the move all day.

Not sure if you could redirect your home phone to your mobile and then have the 0871 number point to your home one??

I would be interested if anyone else has any other thoughts?

Ian

Lots of people refuse to ring 0870 0871 numbers and these people think you are ripping them off. I never ring them unless it is life and death. The customer pays anything up about 10p per min.

You are much better with a landline and/or 0800.

I use www.ttnc.co.uk it is only £25 plus vat for the number for life, but you pay for the diverts. Mind you conversations are normally short and I have only spent about £30 in divert charges,  since last oct on two numbers, plus a fax number to email.

tells us more - I have a mate who has just signed up to this. (THB I thought he was winding me up!) Anyway whats the name of the company? Come on nothing to lose as if you don't tell me then I will just ask him and post the details here!!! ;)  How long have you been with them? Why do you recommend them? Do you think it gains you extra business? don't take offence by the questions I am just interested. I have my reasons which I am sure I will end up explaining in this topic at some stage.

But it still doesnt give you free divert to mobile? Or have I misunderstood what the 1000 minutes are?

thats what im saying, the deal i get gives you free divert to any number and you can change it whenever you like, 1000 free incoming calls a month and the online tracker

the better numbers cost more obviously but i got 0800 5 118 260 on the same price band as what i can get

What are the prices for if you go over the 100 calls (or is it minutes) a month?

I am interested as I was looking at this recently. Can you also do call timings i.e between 9-5 divert to 1 number and after 5 divert to another?

Thanks for the info

Ian
