I think that it depends on your plan / contract - you can find their website
here.
However it is far cheaper to use Skype (1.4 p per minute to a UK landline) or other internet telephony - free if calling another internet connected device!

Yep, all free...
Skype to Skype, Viber to Viber, Whatsapp to Whatsapp...
...and as we all know - "It takes two to Tango"!

Just had an hour video Whatsapp call, brilliant and its free! Beginning to prefer it to Skype for family etc, but Skype absolutely invaluable when you need to speak to bank or whatever in UK. Heaven only knows how we would be able to make European calls on Turkcell, when you are put on hold or passed from Department to Department.

Hi, looking at using Skype for landline calls to the UK from TRNC, do you need to have the VPN activated when doing so?
Thanks for any responses.

We use Voipwise with the laptop for anything other than Skype or FaceTime. Very cheap.
