If you have a smartphone and are calling a uk landline the Skype is about $0.023 mobile phones are $0.01 per minute
There are many free app to app services; line, Skype, FaceTime, and Zoom Are a few

Dont think you can call 0845 numbers from abroad or, if you can it is expensive. Most banks and other institutions have an alternative "normal" number to call when out if the country. It's worth checking.

Get a call card from CAT telecom. Or 009 44 and omit the zero on the code you want.

You certainly can call them, the prices are as shown above. A bit more than mobiles and around 5 X the cost of a landline.

Re: how to call back to the UK cheap from Thailand
My wife and I have used a CAT phonenet card for about 15 years now to call back to the states and elsewhere. It will work from both a land line as well as your mobile phone and it will not eat up your mobile phone time. I'm a touring cyclist (bicycle) for about 12 years and my wife has used our phone net card to stay in touch with me no matter what country I happen to be in. It works on toll numbers as well as toll free numbers. Rarely have we had a problem with a poor connection. CAT Phonenet calling cards are available at the CAT Telephone office corner of Udon Dutsadi Rd (road to Nong Khai) and Wattana Nuwong Rd (road which runs from the train station to Tung Sri Mung).

That doesn’t work to call a phone number POTS or mobile, only for computers, or app to app.minimiglia wrote: ↑May 9, 2020, 5:06 pmAs I have already told you , use messenger on Facebook, FREE
There are many services that allow the kind of free communication without involving Farcebook.

Re: how to call back to the UK cheap from Thailand
I have used skype on my laptop and samsung galaxy. I can call landlines and mobiles worldwide. It is just a couple of pence a minute.
Very good when calling banks etc when they put you on hold.

As a minimum it requires a farcebook account to log on so that is not correct.minimiglia wrote: ↑May 10, 2020, 7:18 amYes it does and you only need messenger not facebook, I us it all the time too easy and FREE
How often do you call someone with a POTS number?
If you are calling to smartphones that doesn’t count if they have messager or farcebook on them.
I remain to be convinced that Farcebook is paying for your telephone calls, if you’re calling into the POTS system or to a telephone like mine then someone is paying.
Can you call a Thai number for free, it should be possible as they cost less than a U.K. call?

The call quality is also usually very good and calls to U.K. landlines are ฿44.4 per hour but calls to mobiles are ฿194 per hour
