    3 Stars Just for the price of a national call 19/06/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages The Cheapest International Call Tariff Ever

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Connection is not that good

    I think you will find a very detailed opinion by john.sw but the same details like connection number can be found on www.just-dial.com Well, the main thing is that you do not need an account, or credit card, or the such, but you just dial the number they state on the site, followed by the international number you wish to call. As it's an 0870 number, calls are charged at national rates and is also applicable for the use of free minutes from your mobile phones. This would turn out to being making international at no costs, or depending on the phone operator you have, making international could ... more

    5 Stars Just Dial to Save a Fortune on International Calls 15/12/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free, easy, no bills, no paperwork

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not available to all countries or a weekends

    Just-dial.com is so easy, so convenient and so cheap; it’s a wonder that everybody isn’t using it! Users do not need to buy anything; no account, no credit card details, no bills; simply dial 0870 794 0000 from any UK phone (fixed, mobile or phone box) followed by the international number and you are quickly connected for the price of a UK call. As with all 0870 numbers, calls are charged at the standard UK National Rate. If you have Orange Everyday 50, you can call America and the other countries listed below, off peak (which is during the working day for Americans) FREE for 50 minutes, and ... more

    5 Stars Just save yourself a fortune 17/06/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages No prepayment, no contract and no credit cards

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not all countries yet, but the list is growing!

    "Thanks for calling Just Dial, the service that lets you call abroad for the cost of a national call" says a friendly voice at the end of the line whenever I dial 0870 794 7990. Just Dial is quite revolutionary, and very cool! It first came to my attention a while back when I was travelling on the London Underground and noticed one of those ads above the windows. Back then, I hadn't got a pen on me, so I busied myself memorising the number. I'm glad I did - it's saved me a load of hassle and cost since! So tell me... how does it work? When you dial the access number BT (or your cable company ... more

    3 Stars Lacks Quality nowadays 11/02/2005
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Nothing to purchase

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Low Quality of service

    I came to UK from India 1.5 years back. My parents and brothers are still there back in India. So I have to keep calling up to speak to them very often. I used to buy the calling cards from www.eurocallingcards.com for 12 or 20 GBP in which I could talk for 260 minutes approx and the one disadvantage of that being that the balance keeps reducing daily eventhough you dont speak. The cost of the calls ranges from 5p to 7p per minute for calls to India. In addition to the local call charges when using 0845 or 020 access numbers. I heard about just-dial.com and also found out that I could become a ... more

    4 Stars Just Dial and alternatives www.0870-dial.co.uk 18/03/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages No prepayment or credit card needed

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Have to pay from 1st sec even if call do not get through

    Most of the details about just dial service has been covered by John.SW and I thought I just provide a little bit information about the service. For those who experience occasional difficulties, it may be worth trying an alternative service, http://www.0870-dial.co.uk and http://www.0871-dial.co.uk (NOTE: 0871 number is "named" as national rate but is actually 10p/min at all time. Different from 0870 numbers, it is also rather expensive to call 0871 from mobiles). The way JustDial works is via the telecom interconnection agreement. When you dial their 0870 number, you pay your telephone ... more

    5 Stars Free / very cheap International call from mobile 17/01/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages No Expiry Date, Easy to use, Cheap and Convenient

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Only useful if you have the right mobile tarrif

    I believe all of you have come across a lot of this reviews telling you to call so and so number to make cheap international call. I have been using just dial service for some time and I would only recommend you to use it if you really can make a saving with it. From my research, unless you are on 02 mobile, 0870 and 0844 will not be inclusive in your free minutes hence using the below numbers to make international call is going to cost you money (national rate). Another way to save money is to call using your office phone and it will not be possible to trace as it is being charge at the local ... more

    5 Stars There is no catch! 10/01/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Works with almost any phones

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lines get busy sometimes (rarely)

    Greetings! I received a flyer the other while at school. It wrote down free 5pounds worth of international phone calls by dialing a 0970 telephone number. I tried it and end up paying more than BT. I got cheated! I lost my trust to any instant dial numbers until I found Just Dial. When my University mate introduced me to Just Dial, I was quite reluctant. This was what it said on the flyer, No Accounts To Open, No Credit Card Required, No Bills From Us, No Prepayment, Just Pay BT for A National Call. How would such a service be so good without any frills? Eventually, I gave it a try. I dialed ... more

    5 Stars Canada for the price of a UK national call 14/01/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Really easy to use.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sometimes the line is a bit crackly

    It was about a year ago that I first heard about Just Dial. I saw their on a tube and have to admit that at first I was sceptical....there had to be a catch. The advertisement said that you could call Canada, Australia, USA and about 7 other countries for the cost of a National call on whatever your network was, whether it be mobile, landline. All you have to do to use this service is to dial 0870 794 0000 followed by the full destination number. It really is that simple! Out of the 10 or so times that I have used this service I have only experienced a crackly line twice. I have mainly used ... more

    4 Stars Cheap International Calls using Just Dial. 22/09/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Calls from 2p, many free using O2 contract, no extra bills

    Disadvantages Disadvantages African countries not on 5p number

    I have now discovered many Instant Dial services. Just Dial is very popular and reliable.I have now discovered an Instant Dial Service from Modus Comms. You just dial USA, Canada and other destinations at all times for only 2p. This is a very cheap call rate. There are many European destinations also - again starting at 2p. Also cheap calls to India, Pakistan. In fact these are actually only 5p (including Mobiles ) and other sub continent destinations. Many destinations that start with 0844 acess numbers (2p, 3p, 4p and 5p numbers - there is a lot of these) can be dialled for free using your ... more
