I'm not sure which one you were on but it sounds like the old choose
your own off peak in the bottom table.

It's more expensive off-peak to landlines. It's 5p/min cheaper at peak times.
To other networks its 10p/min cheaper off-peak and 35p/min cheaper at
peak times.

If its only landlines you call, and mainly off-peak, then yeah - the
old tariff would suit you better. On the whole though the Speak Easy
tariff is a much cheaper tariff.
