If your as tight as me; or just don't like paying 35p a minute

Well I recently got a new contract phone with unlimited mins(01, 02 & 03 numbers) & texts, However calls to 08 numbers are 35p a minute & they used to be 12.5p for me. I'am always phoning up Manufacturers tech lines for help with breakdowns (ie voltages, resistances across stats, gas valves etc etc) and they often keep you on hold a while (cough vailliant).

Anyway until now I was not aware that by law companies have to provide an alternative to 08**** numbers, So I looked into it and found this website SAYNOTO0870.COM - Non-Geographical Alternative Telephone Numbers Its GREAT!!!! no more 35p a minute! 😀 Baxi werent overly impressed with me phoning their free number and requesting a warranty check haha.. however I'am not very impressed that my 35p a minute is paying for some ''hot shot suits'' Austin martin haha!

Or you could try WeQ4U handy little app for smart phones.

I have the weq4u app but it hardly works, so I end up phoning costly 08 numbers.

i also hate it
