If I dial 0800 I assume it will be free all of the time even after
midnight.
I dial in via ISDN and have never been disconnected (onll sometime after
midnight but I have never been up to see the time). Over a weekend it is up
for the whole time.

It looks like the modem connections are dropped where ISDN is forgotten
about.
