Re: BT cashless Payphones now offering free calls

Are these different to the payphones that big advertising screens on? We have a fair few of those in Leicester city centre and landline and mobile calls are free from them. The drug addicts love that they can call their dealer for free now 🤣

Re: BT cashless Payphones now offering free calls

No they are standard BT phone boxes that were made cashless because they took little cash and is pointless doing cash runs or the phones were mostly made to make freephone calls. The BT Street Hubs are the new digital kiosks that let you make free calls and use super fast WiFi.

They aren't the only free options, InFocus also allow free calls to landline and 0800 numbers.

It's not just drug addicts using them, and everyone has a right to a phone service, if you take away the free calls, the drug addicts will still exist in your community just using prepaid mobile phones or taking out bogus contracts and still making free calls!

BT and New World Payphones kiosks also house mini masts to boost coverage in many areas

 

Forget this concept about everyone able to use a mobile, it's when they have lost it or had it stolen or battery dies is when Payphones become vital
