Hi Cal

Take a look at http://www.aql.com/telecoms/site/aql_tariff.pdf
Page 257, peak is £0.128, off peak is £0.269.

I asked them about this before and they said "the majority of our
customers make calls during the day, so we charge more during the
evenings".

I lol'd hard.

That has to be an old rate card from not a million years ago when off-peak was more expensive than peak for a while. Even now, that peak rate is quite expensive for retail. Then again, they've probably got customers paying it, so that's a nice healthy margin :)

As for the rest of my points, wasn't aimed at you personally Cal - more to the thread in general. The point still stands though that there's no wrong or right solution, it all depends on the requirements.

Cheers,

Alex
