a chorus phone bill example

yankinlk

just wanted to say for anyone who might happen by...thier phone service is top notch for normal phone line usage. (ie not using the internet)

just happened to have my latest bill in front of me:

82 calls under 50p = 2:37:34 duration = 3.76£
1 call to the states 8:55 duration = .88£ (10 pence a minute to the states!)
1 call to mobile 6:58 duration = .86£ (mobile is more expensive then stateside!)

Total cost of all calls including vat last month = 6.61

no line rental to eircom...when was the last time u had a phoe bill for 6.61? anyone? 1971?

arr, 1964 twas. and a fine year at that. me matter and patter had left to sail the seas and I was left with aunt guinivere at her lakeside mansion. well I wound up the mighty telephonic contraption and spoke into the noise catcher. not a great signal mind you due to the phone lines being constructed of a fine wool. A dikity minute convoysation with my old concubine on the far end of the island cost me only tuppence haypenny and a smithing of goats milk.. by gar there were no eircom in them days... aaaarrrrrr

yeh, thats the rason i went to use chorus in the first place...just to avoid paying eircon any line rental....but the bonus is the calls are cheap anyway...

And do these Chorus byos do Galway too?
I might threaten Eircom with Chorus' prices if they don't fix my DACS thingy pronto loike
