But indirect access calls (where you call through to another phone provider, as with callchecker numbers) are still chargeable.
Have a look at www.my0870.com who issue direct numbers.0 -
BT have started charging odd calls which are taken through my0870.com0

What will happen if I exceed the Fair Usage Policy?
If you exceed the Fair Usage Policy (either 1000 minutes or 150 calls in a given month), you'll receive an SMS to your landline, informing you that you've breached the Fair Usage Policy and will be charged at BT's standard rates for any further calls to 0845 & 0870 numbers (an 8p set-up-fee applies).

If you exceed the Fair Usage Policy you'll no longer receive free calls to 0845 and 0870 numbers. Details of how to contact us about it will be provided in the SMS notification.

Although you got those calls refunded, that will probably only be that whoever you spoke to didn't check what the number was for. It won't be long before you won't be able to get the charges refunded.If saved £2710 and only spent the interest (Based on a return of 5%), you would have enough money to pay your TV Licence every year. Saving you £7452.50 over a period of 55 years, based on you buying a license from the age of 20 until your 75 at a cost of £135.50.0
