This option provides unlimited UK landline calls and free international calls to 10 destinations. This service comes at an additional cost of £5 per month. Customers on Sky Talk ('Speak') must have an active BT landline and therefore the monthly BT landline rental fee is also attributable. [NB.- Sky Talk Freetime daytime calls are charged at 3.25p per minute, calls to mobiles and abroad are charge at a rate of 5% below the BT rate.
