Calls to 0800 numbers ARE free from a UK mobile...

...but calls to 0800 Numbers are already Free from UK mobiles

A recent report from Ofcom, the telecommunications regulator, says that Freephone numbers should be free from all UK mobiles as they are indeed from landlines.

Call charges to Freephone numbers such as 0800 and 0808 are normally paid for by the company owning the number, rather than the person calling the number.

This is rarely the case when calling from a UK mobile phone.

However, by using SimplyFone’s mobile Override service, calls to any number from a registered mobile phone are charged at exactly the same rate as calls from landlines…

Simply register your mobiles with us and by dialling an 020 8xxx number (included as a free call in any inclusive landline-call package) you can make ‘free’ calls to any 0800 number…
