0200 222 0900 (Its a normal 020 geographical landline number and is charged accordingly).
If you dial it and then dial the freephone number it will put you through it only works solely for freephone numbers.It will also connect you to Intl freephone numbers.This means you Mrs could dial your freephone number out of her inclusive mobile 01/02 landline minutes without being charged.( It could also be cheaper to use from a Payg phone then dialling freephone direct).
Brilliant! Many thanks!Don't lie, thieve, cheat or steal. The Government do not like the competition.

Either try 0200 222 0700 or 0200 222 0900 one of them usually works.;)0 -
:T this works. I've just tried it. all my calls to land lines are free on my orange contract but not 0800 and they dont even come off my inclusive minutes. This number makes me feel so much better knowing that i was calling India FREE:j
