Be careful about the UK number part. The number is probably Jersey or the IOM. These calls are often not charged as regular mobile to mobile calls on most plans. I did a little experiment with a UM Mobile (+44 - Jersey) SIM before they started charging a connection charge and asked friends in the UK to see how they were billed. 02 subscribers were not charged (it was treated as a standard mobile call), but 3, T-Mobile, and Orange did surcharge the call.
