No they're not, because when you pay �5 your balance will become �5.02.
Not sure what the minimum costs are, but it'll cost a certain amount (most likely more than 2p) just to connect the call, and then a certain amount per minute while you're on, also more than 2p.
no. it doesn't cost anything to ring and hang up before they answer. and it always goes down to 2p so when i put �5 on it's �5.02 then it gets to 2p and cant go any lower cause i cant use it.
Put �5 on, make a call costing �1.02 followed by 4 calls of �1 each, problem solved.
You must be frantic with worry that your provider is holding back a whole 2p
