Calls to 0844 numbers

If I make a call to a number starting with 0844, will I be charged at local rate?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

With local calls charged at 3.948 pence per minute Mon to Friday 7am to 7pm and 1 pence per minute other times I guess checking the rate for your 0844 on the link above will give you your answer.  0844 don't have one set price.  It depends on the number.
All other BT call charges are on the following

  • UK calls to 0844 numbers and three way calling

    Can somebody help me please.
    Is there a Skype package available which includes calls to 0844 numbers? I am based in the UK and am due to be working on a project where i will be transferring customers through to an 0844 number to complete the process. I would also like to know if I can do three way calling on Skype when the other two callers are not on Skype but on ordinary phones.
    Thank you in advance.

    Currently there isn't a subscription that would cover calls to 0844 numbers in UK, but you can purchase Skype Credit and use it to pay for your calls.
    Keep in mind that calls to 0844 numbers are charged at higher rates:

    It is possible to make conference calls with ordinary phones.

  • The cost of calling 0844 numbers

    I thought that I could ring 0844 for free in my unlimited package periuod.
    This is not true.
    On ringing BT customer services a man in the Phillipines told me that the cost of ringing any 0844 number is a 15p connection charge and then 2.04p per minute.
    This is not true
    The cost can be at a whole load of different rates depending on the rest of the 0844 number.  I am told that these rates may be 1p 3p 5p 7p etc but I am not sure about this.
    Can anyone please help  me (and BT) to understand these rates better?

    The information on the cost of 0844 numbers is available, but BT really don't make it easy to find out how much a call will cost.
    My method is this:
    1. Look up the "Charge Rate" for the number in this list: http://www.bt.com/pricing/current/Call_Charges_boo​/1632_d0e5.htm#1632-d0e5
    2. Look up the price per minute for the charge rate here: http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumer/ass​ets/downloads/BT_PhoneTariff_SpecialNos.pdf

  • Facing difficulty calling any Indian numbers (mobi...

    I am facing difficulty calling any Indian numbers from UAE. I have recently subscribed to Skype calls to India. Everytime I call to any number, the call gets connected and drop after few seconds. Neither side is able hear anything. There is no ring tone either when the connection is made.  
    I tried with Skype App for Windows 8 and also Skype for Desktop. Same problem with Connection.  
    It is depressing that I cannot make calls after I have recently purchased subscription for 12months!
    Could someone suggest a wayout?  
    Thanks

  • Calling Australian mobile numbers

    What Skype plans allow me to call australian mobile phones.   I will be calling from both Australia and overseas.  My old pay asyou go plan seemed to allow this.   I recently got a 'premium' plan. It does not appear to allow me to call Australian mobile phones.   Please confirm that pay as you go is the only way to call australian mobile phones.   If that is the case can you have two plans on one skpe name -say a pay as you go and a 'premium' and have it work so that the 'premium' time would be deducted if possible and the pay as you go would only be consumed if the call could not be made under the 'premium' plan.  Otherwise I will just have to have two skype names , one under premium and one under pay as you go. 
    I must say I find the information on what are the call restrictions on the various plans is not easy to find.

    Where does it state it is allowed?
    The roaming page says what it cost if you are in Bosnia not if you call a mobile there.On the Calling abroad from the UK page (not roaming page). Scroll down to the "Standard call rates", expand it and see Zone 5.
    I've been in similar situation when was unable to place a call to Latvia for a week or so (actually, calls to different numbers in Latvia from different operators). I've been on the phone with EE every day, and noone was able to find out what's wrong (starting from standard "reboot your phone" etc to level 3 tech). Only at the end of the week one of the CSR found out that calls to Latvia were barred acros whole network without any notice/info/reason. Long story short - accepted £61.50 compensation.

  • Blocking calls from Unknown numbers?

    Hello all,
    Is there any option/application in iPhone 4S, IOS6.1.3 where I  can block any calls from unknown numbers?
    Specifying exactly, I want to receive calls from people only those whose numbers are saved in my phone or say Saved Contacts Only.
    Nobody other than that should be able to call me.
    That would be of a great help.

  • How to calling 1 800 numbers and then input confer...

    I know that I can call 1-800 numbers in the USA but I need to be on a conference call via  1-800 number on Monday.  Once the 1 800 number is answered, a voice asks me to enter the code to join the conference call.  how do I do that as there is no keyboard to enter the numbers?  Do I just enter the numbers after the original 1 800 number call?  Please advise.  Thanks,

  • Unable to call mobile phone numbers - Play mobile network - Poland

    Hi, I'm trying to call some mobile phone numbers in Poland and still got answer: "sorry you can not call this number". 2 or 3 months before it wasn't a problem but now seems that it's related only to one mobile network in Poland - Play. Do you have any idea whether they've changed their policy recently? Thank you in advance.

    I just contacted Skype support. The issue has been rosolved!!! The CALLER ID must be set up, otherwise PLAY will not accept the calls! I set up my Caller Id and suddenly was able to call all PLAY numbers! Thank you Skype for your efficient technical support!!! SKYPE RULES!!!!!

  • If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?

    If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?
    Obviously there's no voice or data roaming for Verizon 3G/4G/CDMA phones in Europe.... (or am I wrong?)
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello WCMack,
    That was a great explanation on the situation. Just to confirm, Europe uses GSM for their wireless network. There are third party apps that will allow you to make calls via wi-fi on a wi-fi enabled device. This is largely due if wi-fi is available and if it's free.
    From my experience, I was able to make wi-fi calls on my Iphone 4 in Greece without any problems last month. Since we don't own any towers in Europe, the service is hit or miss. Feel free to update us when you get back.
    Enjoy your trip!...

    Hello,
    Firstly ALWAYS start your own topic. To add to a 3-month old unrelated thread which has been resolved long ago is not a good idea and can mean that your query is overlooked.
    You can call to or within any country using either a valid Subscription  provided that you do so within the Fair Use Policy http://www.skype.com/en/legal/fair-usage/ or with Skype Credit.
    Specifically please note the following clause:
    "The following is a non-exhaustive list of practices  that would NOT be considered Legitimate Use:
    Using subscriptions for telemarketing or call center operations"
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
    If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.
    Please note that I generally don't respond to unsolicited Private Messages. Thank you.

  • Getting calls from blocked numbers

    I have been receiving phone calls from a blocked number, is there any way to find out who it is? I know when someone blocks there number on a landline you can *69 and call the number back can you do that with a cell phone?

        Hey there, barkar! Although it's been a while, I recall a period of time when I would get calls from blocked numbers. It can be very upsetting! I wish I could say that there's a way to see beyond those blocks, but the very purpose of the blocks is to protect the caller's privacy (even if that protection may come at the expense of the peace of mind of those being called). The best advice I can offer is to just not answer calls from individuals you either don't recognize or don't expect. Let them roll to voicemail. Must legitimate calls will leave you a message with their intentions stated.
    And, if they become too much to handle, you do have the option to change your mobile number free of charge through My Verizon. Good luck to you!

    YouMail is a free voicemail service that gives you a workaround for dealing with restricted or blocked numbers.  It's called "DitchMail" - when it sees a blocked or restricted number, the caller gets a recorded message (yours, or DitchMail's default) saying that you do not accept calls from blocked numbers, please unblock and try again - and then it hangs up without giving the caller an opportunity to leave a message.
    It doesn't prevent the call from coming in - but it does deal with it so you don't have to.  If you see a blocked number coming in, you can always hit End or Ignore, sending them straight to VM or DitchMail.
