From the O2 Special Numbers page:
0800 and 0808
Freephone numbers starting 0800 or 0808, which are generally already free from landlines, will be free for consumers to call from mobile phones from 1 July 2015. After that date, you will not be charged for calling any number starting 0800 or 0808 from your O2 phone
It looks to me as if the 25p access charge is for calling other 08 numbers.

I have had the same text in today. It reads as follows....
O2: We are changing how we charge you.
If you call 08,09 or 118 numbers, look out for changes as to how these will be charged from July 1st
We'll charge 25p a minute as an access charge to connect you. For info visit www.ukcalling.info

A little ambiguous and we really need to see those charges reflected on the account.

It's about time all 08 were free and any numbers that were chargeable came under different prefixes.

It really is getting ever more difficult to know what is chargeable outside allowances but both the network and governing bodies need to sort it out now. Why we have to wait a couple of years for change is way beyond reasonable.
