Due to many of the free international calls services having been withdrawn recently we are advising all of our customers other than Virgin, some Vodafone and landline callers to use the Text & Talk service.
Text & Talk is our revolutionary mobile service that allows you to call anywhere in the world from 1p/min.
Just add some Text & Talk credit to your mobile by texting the word MFC to 80556 or 84459(standard network rate). We'll then add £5 or £3 respectively worth of international call minutes directly to your mobile phone.
You can now call your overseas contacts at incredible low rates. Just dial one of our access numbers followed by the full destination number. You can use your credit directly from your mobile or from any other phone using a PIN number. It's so easy and our rates are unbeatable!
Auto top-up. The unique TEXT & TALK auto top-up feature means you are never caught short without enough credit mid-way through a call. When your credit is running low and about to finish you will hear a voice prompt confirming there will be an auto top-up, for £5 or £3 as per your first TEXT & TALK credit purchase.
In order to avoid being automatically topped up you have to end the call (there is a period of 30 seconds to end the call).If you do not disconnect, we will top you up and you can continue your call. Customers can also text STOP to 80556 or 84459 at anytime to unsubscribe from the auto topup option. If the customer is using a PAYGO mobile and there isn't enough credit left for the auto topup, the auto topup will obviously not take place.

For convenience, you can store your myfreecalls number in front of the numbers you call most often on your mobile phone.
There are two ways to do this, you can either save the number into the phone book on your phone in the regular way, or you can edit the numbers in your phone book to include the myfreecalls number and dial using pause dialling. This can be done as follows:
On a Nokia phone
Step 1: Enter the "myfreecalls" access number
Step 2: Press * 3 times to show ' p '. (This causes dialling to pause)
Step 3: Enter your destination number - including the full international code
For example: 07744 688 844 p 00 XXXXX XXXX

Step 1: Enter the "myfreecalls" access number
Step 2: Press and hold * to show ' p '. (This causes dialling to pause)

You can check this list. It will show you the countries you can call, and also whether there are any restrictions in terms of the time of day (e.g. peak, off-peak, weekend).
