Could you add another column for local and national geographical calls? I appreciate that each operator has different tariffs, so you could show the range from the lowest to the highest.

So do providers in Ireland still charge national geographical calls above local ones? For a number of years now in the UK there has been no differing “local rate”.

According to their websites, these providers align their local and national geographical call rates (where calls are chargeable):
BT Ireland
Perlico
Talk Talk
Chorus NTL (except for national calls in the evening)

Those that charge more than local rate for national calls (where calls are chargeable):
Eircom
Imagine
UTV

So some have one rate and some don’t. However, they all offer inclusive elements which all include both local and national calls.

In the case of calling 0818 numbers, do they employ per minute billing or are you charged a minimum amount and then per minute kicks in? I.e. if you call 0818 from an O2 pay monthly a/c is it (35c/60 X actual number of secs on the call)?

Thx.
