Calls to 0800 numbers now free on mobile phones and landlines

Anonymous

Freephone numbers starting with 0800 or 0808 are now free to call from mobile phones as well as landlines.

The move is part of an overhaul of phone numbers and charges planned for many months by regulator Ofcom which has now come into force.

 

It said the cost of so-called service numbers, starting with 084, 087, 118 or 09, had also been simplified.

But there are warnings of confusion over the exact cost of these calls and that the burden on firms may rise.

Lets hope someone told O2.
