To use these call through nos. - only via 3 - do you have to take out
credit with the co. as a top up - or is the call cost deducted from 3

CJB.

It's a typical Callthrough using a networks (in this case Three) short
code,
you call 351 0200 etc, it should charge you at 2p per min from your
PAYG credit, easily checked by calling 444 option 1 credit remaining,
and then again after the call to hear how much it's reduced by.

Like most callthroughs it charges as soon as you make the call,
whether or not it successfully connects.
As such i doubt if i would chance using it to call UK mobiles
on it's higher 10p rate number

Is there a single 'one click' way of dialling the no. to call say
landline BT 01234 123 456, e.g.

3510200 pause 00441234123456
or maybe
3510200 pause +441234123456
CJB

Yes of course, at least on Nokia phones, many others like the S2 are
simular.

Pressing the star button 3 times produces a "P" which is a 2 second pause,
if that's not enough add as many as you need together.
e.g. 3510200pp00441234123456
and save it to a phone memory

Yes - this works for me.

Actually I have set this up up with 4 p's (the '#' held down gives a
'p')

So the no. is now:

3510200pppp00441234123456

But on the S2 this is too long for a direct entry to the contacts
directory, so I entered it as a 'speed dial' no. for '4'. Then I
created a new contact for the person in the directory linking to the
speed dial no. of 4.

AND IT WORKED. And my recent call of 30 mins only cost 60p. Last time
I did this using Three itself it cost me £6 - although when I
complained Three refunded this.

Great stuff.

Yes, you could use the 3511000 callthrough at 10p per min to call:

3511000pp00447782333123p(your Three number#)p
(your 4 digit Three voicemail pin#)
and store the whole thing to a phone memory

Or whoever is the cheapest to call the Three voicemail number
07782333123, such as giffgaff or Asda mobile at 8p per min.

Or if you have access to a contract phone out of inc mins.

Why should Three refund you?
30 mins at their published rate of 25p per min is £7.50,
they correctly or undercharged you.

Probably still 20p at the time in question.

30 mins at 20p per min is still 6 quid

I don't think there's any doubt for the need for 3Pay callthroughs

OK - whatever - anyway the call through works to a BT landline on an
S2 using speed dialing and a composite no.

Now how to access Threebvoicemail on the cheap is the next issue.
Anyone any ideas?

It's whatever you have to call cheaply the mobile number 07782333123

AFAIK the cheapest non contract would be VOIP
http://www.voipgain.com/en/index.html
2p per min to UK mobiles from a PC
