My phone bill reads i have made premium rate calls? What does this mean?

you've called  phone lines that charge alot of money like game shows on TV

Answer 2

a premium rate call means you have called a number starting 09 in the uk. these are either s*x lines, or phone voting on television shows.

Answer 3

You've been phoning dirty chat lines!

if you have recently made calls to a voting or bidding service ie AGT (americas got talent) bid tv etc this is because it cost an amount higher than the normal price and is usually a non profit company unless your giving money to charity

0898

0845

These sort of numbers.

They are calls charged at a higher rate than normal call charges.
