    Understanding 08xx Numbers

    What is an 0800 number?

    We've all become aware of the use of the 0800 and the 0808 number ranges as a free to call service number here in the UK. For many companies using them they help to develop a simple competitive advantage.

    Who would use one?

    Any business wanting to promote a product or service and solicit an enquiry. They form the ideal sales response mechanism, removing the financial barrier from the consumer making the enquiry.

    How is it delivered?

    0800 and 0808 numbers are delivered to ordinary lines via an Intelligent Network, this allows for conditions to be set (and changed when needed) so call flow is achieved in an efficient manner.

    Why get an 0800 virtual number?

    To encourage enquiries from new customers and new/repeat business from existing customers. The statistical call reporting provides an insight into the spread of your incoming enquiries to help you leverage your advertising spend.

    Number selection

    Picking numbers is never easy, probably because there are so many to choose from. Our application forms contained a limited selection of numbers, if one is right for you, just select it and we will have it connected for you in no time at all.

    If you need help, a list of even more numbers to browse, or maybe need something a bit more memorable then get in touch with our back office support team and we will be happy to help.

    Already have a number?

    OFCOM have stated that number portability agreements should exist to allow end users the right to move between suppliers. There are many and various reasons why you may choose to leave your current supplier, pricing increases or bad service are the most notorious. The transfer is seemless so you have no need to be concerned. If you have been using one of these numbers, your customers will have got used to it by now, number portability allows you to transfer to another provider for whatever reason. Contact us if you more information on how this works.
