0845 Number???

Question

Does anyone know how u go about getting an 0845 number?How much does it cost and what are the benifits? Thanks in advance x

Answer 1

Be careful when ordering an 0845. The first reason is that there are a lot of dodgy companies dealing them. The second is that people don't like having to pay for their calls, when these days most people can call 01 and 02 numbers for free, but 0845 and 0870 numbers are excluded from offers. And the final reason is that you can get an 01 or 02 custom second line nice'n'cheap from Skype, for something like £30 a year. People will appreciate this more, and whilst an 0845 number may sound more appealing and professional, really most people hate them as they cost them.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Loads of places will sell you an 0845 number.

Just type it into your search bar.

Answer 3

I found a company after searching called uk2numbers.

They claim £9.95 setup and free incoming call charges compared to BT who charge you £120 for rental per year and 3.48p per minute to receive calls.

That's the cost, but to be honest you'll more than likely lose customers who grudge phoning 0845 numbers as these are non-geographic numbers and are not free of charge with inclusive calling mins etc
