I am correct in my thinking !

correct it goes via your broadband connection so you can cancel your BT or NTL phone line provided your broadband isn't via ADSL. yes, the package is good if you do loads of UK calls. I use sipgate which is a similar product ie. voice over IP. The prices on freetalk are better for uk mobile calls compared to sipgate during evenings and weekends. I suggest you check what notice period you're on with BT or NTL re cancelling your phone line before you order freetalk.

it doesn't go via a phone line mate, it replaces it (if you're happy to lose the 999 facility).
