Calls to 0870/0845 included

danjaq · 20-05-2005, 21:46

I used to be with Singlepoint when 0870/0845 numbers were included in my monthly allocation (I was with O2 on an O2 tariff). Now that Singlepoint is no more and I'm a Vodafone customer, I am charged for calls to these numbers....damn.

Can anyone tell me which network includes these calls in their monthly inclusive minutes please?

Thanks.

I dont think Orange do include them y'know. Not unless im getting ripped off as I have a Liberate Tariff and Personal Tariff and I get charged 10p min

IIRC you get 0800 numbers free but your charged for 0845 / 0870 numbers with orange.

Slightly on this topic...but why are 0800 numbers charged from a mobile? Surely this is a rip off?

no , because the company supplying the 0800 number are not prepared to pay for mobile calls.

I'm on student package (300 anytime mins) and if I have mins left in my talktime, then 0845/0870 come out of my allowance.
