Fineura (?) rates gone wierd

#1 (**permalink**) 11-07-2006, 08:13 AM

Just been looking at rates for internet calls / voipcheap etc and all their
published rates
all look wrong (far too cheap) I guess they are not charged at these rates.

from http://www.internetcalls.com/en/rates.html UK prices as an example
0.3p for a mobile???
Or are they showing a per second rate?

United Kingdom (Landline) SuperDeal! FREE* FREE*
United Kingdom (Mobile) 0.003 0.003
United Kingdom [0845 Rate] 0.000 0.000
United Kingdom [national Rate] 0.001 0.001
United Kingdom [personal] 0.003 0.003

Prices in UKP per minute in minute "units"

Anyone know what's going on? I need to buy some credit for one of my
accounts and just
wondered who had the best deals

You sure you have the correct currency set?

If I set it to United Kingdom, GBP I get...

United Kingdom (Mobile)0.269 0.312
United Kingdom [0845 Rate] 0.060 0.069
United Kingdom [national Rate] 0.149 0.173
United Kingdom [personal] 0.269 0.312

Looks like they have corrected the error across their websites but it was
wrong for at least 12 hrs
I was looking at UKP honest!

I noticed that this morning and tried out the 0845 @ 0.0p option. I got
charged €0.04 for a 7-second connection, so I figured that something
was wrong. Not even a window of opportunity!
