xbecx Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Does ayone have any views on the use of 0845 numbers in advertising? Do the majority of people these days realise that they will be charged a Local call rate, or are people suspicious of them thinking they are premium rate? Any thoughts and views appreciated....

2wentypence Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 They are very annoying. They were useful in the old days but to people like me now who only use a mobile they mean im always charged at my standard rate so I get no benefit - same with 0800.

I do know that they are only charged at local rate but a lot of people might think 0800 just because it starts 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Smith Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 0845 numbers are not as much of a rip off as 0870 (the use of those is an absolute con) but most people these days are on some kind of "package" so will actually find them more expensive than a geographical number.
