0844 Numbers
0844 numbers allow callers to contact you at a low fixed rate day or night without you having to subsidise the cost of the call. At a maximum of 5p per minute from anywhere in the UK, 0844 numbers are slightly higher than the standard BT local rate but around 3p lower than the national rate for a UK call. We can divert your chosen 0844 number to a landline or even to a mobile for an additional cost. Simply choose the option which is right for your business when purchasing your 0844 number at the checkout.
Benefits of 0844 numbers:
- Callers are charged less than the national rate
Callers can contact you at a fixed cost of just 5p per minute (inc vat), which is slightly higher than the standard BT local rate but around 3p lower than the national rate for a UK call. This will encourage customers to call putting you ahead of your competitors.
- Gives your business a national presence and professional image whilst keeping a local rate feel
An 0844 number will remove the limiting factor of a regional identity, promoting your business to a much wider audience. This will effectively transform your image from a 'local firm' to a 'serious national business.'
- Equality with an 0844 Number
All customers will be charged equally, irrespective of their location. This unified charging can be a major factor in acquiring more and more potential customers.
- There's no need to change your existing landline number
When your customer phones your 0844 number their call is instantly redirected to whichever phone number you have given us. 0844 numbers can be delivered to any fixed landline, or even to a mobile! (additional costs apply)
- No extra lines to rent or equipment to buy
There is absolutely no requirement for extra phone lines or any equipment whatsoever. We simply divert the incoming calls to an existing number of your choice. Your phone will continue to receive calls on its original number as well as the incoming 0844 Freephone calls, and can be used to make outgoing calls as normal.
- It's future proof
An 0844 number will not change like a landline number, so if you move premises the number will move with you!
- Your 0844 number is quick & easy to set-up, so if you order online now it could be up and running later today!
Please note: Only choose an 0844 number if your callers are based exclusively within the UK, or make sure you provide an alternative geographic number for your international callers. This is because 0844 numbers are closed internationally.
