Cost of phoning 0845, 0800, premium rate numbers etc?
I need to find out the cost of phoning the various kinds of number (in the UK). If you can supply a reliable source that would be good as I'm writing a report on the cost of phoning businesses and need to give 'evidence'.

they vary from phone companies andmobile companies, premium can be btween 50p to £10
well, 0800 numbers are free, surely.
0800 numbers are free from any bt landline. a little tip..
Not in answer to your question!! Most companies using 0870 and 0845 numbers also have 'normal' numbers as well. To find these unpublicised and often cheaper numbers use --'Say NO, to 0870' a website which lists these numbers. And please add any numbers that you know, if they are not listed.
I detest these numbers as I pay for 'Unlimited' calls with Telewest, but they always charge extra for 0870 and 0845 numbers, it's another UK rip-off!!
From a standard BT landline, an 0845 number is charged at local rate and an 0800 number is free. Premium rate numbers normally average 50p-£1.50 per minute, but can be much higher. Other landline operators might vary the charges for the above.
Mobile phone companies always charge differently for all types of non-geographic & premium rate calls. In addition, 0800 numbers are charged at "standard rate" on mobile phones - probably to discourage people bypassing the network by using calling cards.
premium numbers are left to the companies to fix the rates.
