With regular changes in telephone numbers, you could be forgiven if you think there's no point in getting headed paper and other stationery as the phone number will change again before you get to use them.

You may be surprised to know that it is not only possible to get your own telephone number for your personal or business use, but that it needn't cost you a penny and if you wish, you can even earn on your inward calls. As the numbers are non-geographical they aren't affected by any future code changes. All you need to do is link them to an existing landline.

Additional services, include easy to remember numbers, freephone and local call numbers and even premium lines are also available at considerably less than you might expect. Click here for further details.

Alternatively, what about personal telephone numbers and fax numbers that can not only be linked to your existing numbers, but can act as an answerphone so that you're never engaged or even be totally independent with all messages and faxes going straight to an e-mail account. You don't even need a fax machine and once again certain numbers are free of charge to you. Click here for further details.

 Don't forget to make sure you are getting the best rates on all your outward calls. Click here for details of a range of options for saving on your calls.

 

0870/0871 numbers (national rate)

National identity normally associated with freephone numbers

No costs to yourself and no monthly bills

You can choose from either a 0870 number or a 0871 number. Both are National Rate Numbers and can be advertised as such.

On an 0870 number you will earn 1p per minute from each call you receive during business hours. On an 0871 number you will earn 2.5p per minute from each call you receive at any time of day and at weekends.

Many large and small companies are now using 0870/1 numbers as non geographic numbers increase response rates to both local and national advertising.

The difference between an 0870 number and a 0871 number is simply the cost the caller pays to call you. For a 0870 number the caller is charged the BT National Rate and peak, off-peak, and weekend rates are applicable.

With an 0871 there is just one flat rate to call it and this is just 10p per minute at any time.

NO Connection Fee and NO monthly service charge for 0870 numbers. For an 0871 there is a refundable connection fee of £10.00 + VAT. This is fully refundable when your 0871 number is generating £250.00 of call revenue a month.

0845 numbers (local rate)

For only £10.00 + VAT per month (or £99.00 + VAT per year) 4FREE are able to offer you an 0845 number with NO CALL CHARGES for you and only local rate charges for your customers. Compare this with the £30 a month plus 7p per minute charged by BT! Click here for more information.

0800 numbers (freephone numbers)

It has been proved that by offering customers a Freephone Number (0800), the response rate can increased by up to three times. A Freephone Number means that the caller pays nothing to call you so what greater incentive is there.

4Free offer you a choice of 3 unbeatable options.

  • OPTION 1 PAY AS YOU GO - No connection charge, no monthly charges.

  • OPTION 2 Monthly charging - No connection charge, £10 monthly charge includes 200 free minutes per month.

  • OPTION 3 Annual charging - No connection charge, £99 annual charge includes 2200 free minutes per month.

free fax and voicemail

Dm gives each customer two FREE personal numbers for life, one for voice and one for fax, which are hosted on Dm's telecommunications servers.

The numbers are used to receive Fax, Voice-mail and Live Calls, and the Dm servers are designed to accept multiple receipts of messages, so Dm's client's telephones are never too busy to lose a call.

Upon receipt of messages or calls, the Dm servers then deliver a very personal service.

For example; Your incoming Faxes and Voice-mails are transcribed to your E-mail Inbox, and Live Calls are redirected to a Mobile, or convenient fixed Phone, under your control. You can change the numbers on which you want to receive live Calls at any time, from anywhere in the world, by dialling your personal DmCLUB 'control' number and keying the new number via DTMF, or via a private 'web based control'. Even while you are online, DM's servers are still accepting your messages and acting upon your instructions. Compatible with PC's and Mac computers.

Most of the accounts are on numbers prefixed 07050, which is the prefix allocated for Mobile Phones and Personal Numbers. 07050 Numbers are both Unifed Mail Numbers and also very powerful Personal Numbers which can forward calls to UK Landlines and UK Mobile Phones without charge. 07050 numbers are not premium rate numbers.

Calls to 07050 numbers from a BT landline are charged at the BT 'K' rate - which is 12.5, 25, 37.5 incl VAT (weekends, night, day) pence per minute before discount. Calls from other types of phones are approximately the same as calling a mobile phone.
