Call Cost Saving
There are various ways to reduce your monthly spend on your mobile phone.
International Calling - UK to Abroad
If you are an Existing (Prior to 28/04/2007) O2 pay monthly customer, you can make free calls to most international numbers. Just dial 0844 570 2410, wait until connected, then followed by the full international number it will connect you through. Ive used this many times to call international mobiles (Including Korea) and has not appeared on my bill.

Route through Skype
With usage of a innovative product called Callcentre by VoSky, it allows you to make calls through to your Skype contacts or using Skype out credit, to any destination using your free minutes.
How does it work? - There is a small box that connects to your telephone line, your PC and your current home phone (including cordless). You can then make a Skype call from your home phone by pressing # followed by the number, or the preprogrammed Skype contact. Where this product really comes into its own though, is that it allows you to call your home phone from your mobile, then enter a PIN to gain access to Skype Out. This will then allow you to dial a Skype contact, or any number using Skype credit.
