International call to Switzerland

Sorry, I made my 2 points very badly (you are also teaching granny to suck eggs).
What I was trying to say was things don't always go as smoothly as one might hope. (I knew you meant indirect access although you hadn't said so, and even if you've got it, sometimes mistakes get made and you get switched off
I would never use pre-pay, the example you gave requires you to top up if credit falls below £5, and they are not that cheap either.
Oh, and if you're not a BT line rental customer and dial 1280 to 'go over BT' you'll be billed at BT's rates (that's certainly true of most providers, can't be sure if you're a PN customer though, as they're owned by BT, and I haven't tried it on PN, no reason to!)

I'm not too keen on Alpha either. I opened the account about 6 years ago so that I didn't ring up my mother-in-law's phone bill whilst ringing my brother in the Netherlands. It was only a temporary measure as I was staying there "between houses". I've still got credit on the account that I'm trying to use up!! (Currently use PN and VoIP to phone abroad - now phone my brother for 0p/min!!!)
I was only trying to point out the PN still allow indirect access codes (not to go into the merits and demerits of specific providers) as some of the services on Martin Lewis's site use IA codes.
