re line rental - Yes I appreciate that, its not quite that good a bargin

But of my bill , 90% are very short calls ( kids !) , where the connection charge becomes a significant part of the bill, and even if you were on the All In packages, generally the connection charge is in addition to the All in price , so I guess moving to the normal All In package would actually give me a bigger bill not a smaller one
i.e. tenner for the All in package (+ line rental) but ALSO including all those 4p~5p connection charges

So my reference to the grail, holy or otherwise was the absence of a per call connection charge with Toucan.

1886 is also looks good, apart from the inability to (sensibly) automate the process. At least Toucan can be 'CPS'ed,

That seems to be one of the benifits of a BT line nowadays you can fairly easliy jump from carrier to carrier, currently on my Ntl line the only easy option is One-Tel and savings are not great, Even with one-tel I could get a better saving but only if I was CPS'ed to then via a BT line.
