I think that NI mobile calls are treated as international mobile calls and thus charged from your credit balance. So you probably need credit to cover the cost (50c/min):

NI landline calls are also treated as international calls unless dialed with the 048 prefix:

There is no add-on to cover international calls. They are always charged from your credit balance.

Hope this helps.

Can't call england. I'm told that I haven't enough credit but my account shows 6euro. If international calls are charged at 50c/min then why am I told that I don't enough credit for this call?

That's is. Is it a regular UK Landline or mobile number or some sort of premium number?

Can't edit last post on phone interface.

I meant "that's odd"!
