Call Egypt for 4p/min
Here's what you do:
- Call phonestar's Egypt service number 0844 909 0505 .
- When you're connected you'll hear a voice prompt asking you to key in the full international number you'd usually use, starting with 00 in the normal way
So, to call someone in Cairo you'd dial 0844 909 0505 then (for example) 0020 2 123456. - To end your call, hang up in the usual manner. The phonestar call will be charged to your normal bill at only 4p per minute — any day, any time.
- Your phonestar call shows up on your bill in the normal way, but the number dialed will show as 0844 909 0505 . And rather than paying 95p per minute to call Egypt using BT, you'll have paid 4p.
Why not try it right now?

So how do we do it so cheaply?
You may be thinking "So where's the catch then?"
Actually, there isn't one!
We can charge you just 4p a minute because we divert our international calls via the phonestar internet system thereby bypassing BT's international telephone network.
That's why phonestar international calls work even when international call barring is activated on the phone—in effect, you're dialing a UK number!

Can I call a mobile in Egypt, though?
Yes, but you need a different phonestar number: 0844 909 0505 . Other than that, it's exactly the same procedure. You pay 4p per minute 24/7 from a landline in the UK.
