  • Brilliant promotional tool. using the 0800 number can increase response levels by up to 40%

0845 numbers

With an 0845 number, the person calling the number pays the standard rate no matter where the organisation is based. These calls offer the perception that the company being called values the customer by subsidising the cost of calling them. In reality the cost is often higher than for a standard local call and is rarely included in call bundles.

The real benefit is to the organisation "owning" the number, as you are able to route the call intelligently wherever you are best resourced to deal with it, so it is ideal for companies with call centres in various locations.

0844 numbers

Customers calling these numbers pay a flat rate at any time, enabling you to receive a payment for every call received. Why pay for a call when you could be paid?

Benefits of 0845/0844 numbers

  • Lowers risk of misuse by callers, as they have to pay for the call as well.
  • Intelligent, flexible routing options available.
  • Cheaper to operate than "Freephone" numbers.
  • Earn money on 0844 numbers

0871 numbers

Customers calling your business on any 0871 number pay a special national rate at any time for their call, which gives the opportunity to earn substantial additional revenues on all calls received on that number.

Benefits of 0871 numbers

  • Enormous potential to maximise income.
  • Earn money on incoming calls.
