Hi, is it legal to charge 50p/minute service charge for a 0843 number?
The following ofcom site lists a 0843 service charge range of 0-7p / minute. Is that just guidance or law?

Charges are guidance only.
Use sites such as "saynoto0870" to find none premium numbers.

Additionally, the link you posted states a "service charge" and an "access charge".
It further shows that 55p/min is the access charge levied by O2.

Thanks MI5 for the response. The o2 bill clearly states it's a service charge and not an access charge. Is a 50p / minute service charge for an 0843 number defensible when the number is on an electricity bill and no mention is made of the service charge?

It's the electric company that is responsible for demonstarting the service charge.
Whether the access charge is defensible or not is a question for O2.

Did you check the sayno site for an alternative number?
