limtex, How would you like to to agree to pay me and a whole bunch of my colleagues 10c (even 5c) for every call that we make that gets cut off. Limited only to London in fact north of the Thames to a distance of say 12 miles from Traflagar Sq. Orange do exactly what you suggest. Sign up with them and they will credit you with 1 minute of call cost if you get cut off and redial within 5 minutes (I think). This applies anywhere in the UK, not just around London. Check their website for full details. orange.co.uk and search "How to ; Manage my account; FAQs; What is meant by getting a credit for a dropped call?" "Orange will automatically apply a credit (up to a maximum of one minute) to your bill in the unlikely event that you should experience a 'dropped call' on the Orange Network. The credit will be given in minutes and not monetary value and the Talk Time will be automatically credited to your inclusive minutes in the next billing period." John
