What mobile phone company's sim should I buy to get free 0800 numbers?
I am with LycaMobile and the PAYG costs an arm and a leg to phone 0800 0845 etc.
Are there any sims I can buy rather than spend another fiver trying to tempt Scottish Electricity to send me a meter key before I change suppliers? (Point to note don't bother getting a new supplier before you settle with the previous not even if you are just moving in. ESPECIALLY if you are just moving in.) I just found out about 2 or 3 weeks into the new arrangement that the ******s at Utility Dick**** Warehouse won't be helping me out until the 28th. I could have moved in weeks ago if I had realised that. What a bloody fool I am. I really want to hurt someone for the pain this has caused. |

There are also services that will let you make 0800 (and some o845/0870 etc.) calls using your standard payg landline calls rates or inclusive minutes.

Have you tried saynoto0870 to see if there is a geographic number available for who you are calling? -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
