In the same way that providers of LoCall numbers will say the same thing. The mobile provider 48 is the most expensive for calling an number, at 50c per minute. In both those cases, the cost is flagged as the same as their normal minute rate, which is 15c per minute.
Neither Meteor nor Vodafone deduct minutes from your free minutes bundles. In fact, there is no information anywhere for any of the Three Mobile plans on how much it is to call numbers. Finally, Tesco Mobile will charge you 30c per minute to call an number — on the more expensive end of the scale. Basically we need to treat numbers the same as , and numbers. That is, as much as possible, we need to hunt down and share geographic alternatives for numbers.
These are:. The but but re Tesco and from bundles. They are no longer taken from bundles. Tesco rep told me today they could no longer afford to include it in bundles. So the last network has fallen. So unless you have extra credit over and above your bundles subscription you simply cannot Call ….
They should be ashamed if themselves!!! I had to top up my mobile today just to call the HSE and the call cost me 5 euro……they need to be taken to task on this. Only in Ireland!!!!! This corruption should be made an election issue — in the near future, I hope. Recently, Electric Ireland refused to do business with a customer who rang them on a line other than their lucrative number — and insisted that the number had to be used!
Needless to say, as a result of this spineless conduct, Electric Ireland lost a good, prompt-paying customer! Am open to correction on that, however. Costs of provisioning a number are exactly the same irrespective of how the number looks like. Loads of numbers in other blocks are now carried as VOIP all the way through to their destination, or to a local provider. Indeed, there are voip providers giving out normal geographic numbers. While is a right mess generally, you should remove that section about VOIP.
What you are saying is nonsense. Gate1 are based in Holland. I was on to them for 4 minutes and the cost was zero. Many people on bill pay have free landline calls now, but are not included in this, which can be surprising to many people. Had an issue with Eir they charge for calls from my landline.
They did refund after the logic of charging for this call was put to them. They said they are not included in Eir unlimited bundle for national and local calls, even though it was a national call. They initially billed me for Euro 1. Another provider charged me 7 euro cent. Therefore Eir. These charges do not reflect the cost of providing the service. The soft approach is not working with companies like Eir Other companies charge similar or higher prices.
Real VOIP calls are so much cheaper. Just been receiving a call from and when i answered the person call me hung up. I called back only to find the number engaged [ network busy].
The structure of the scam is simple enough: the scammers buy up a range of numbers through a network operator, then use automated systems to make "ghost calls" to a huge range of numbers, never completing the call.
You get a "call missed" message, call it back, and the network operator charges you the cost of the call - which, because it's ostensibly to a radiopager, costs very much more than a landline or even mobile call.
Under the contract, which it thinks is legitimate after all, perhaps someone set up a company which needed to call lots of radiopagers in a hurry , the network operator then passes a large cut of the proceeds on to the scammers - who soon after disappear with the loot. Then they pop up again a few weeks or months later running a similar scam. Which would seem to be swift action against any use of numbers to leave missed calls.
Radiopagers, of course, can't make calls. As PhonePayPlus explains, those numbers, reserved for radiopaging services, are not allowed to be used to provide a controlled premium rate service and generate revenue. Colour us unsurprised: premium rate number scammers are unrelenting in their efforts to whirl up and down the phone number stack in search of niches they can exploit for profit. Of course, as with all premium-rate number scams, questions have to be asked too about the network operators that provide the numbers to the scammers.
Paul Whiteing, chief executive of PhonepayPlus, said: "we will consider using our Emergency Procedure to shut down any service that is operating a "missed call" scam, pending a full investigation. We will have no tolerance for scams that harm both consumers and damage the industry. So is there an number in your "missed calls" list?
