Premium Phone Services---Info?

A friend and me are interested in setting up a premium rate tipping line, and have sent to Premium Phone Services for info on renting a line from them. So far so good. However, when I phoned the contact number they gave in their literature(0200 200 9650) the number was not recognised. Hmmm...Also, they appear not to have an email address. Does anyone know anything about this company? Are they legit? I have not been able to find any other tipping lines which use them. This company also use the name telephoneriches

  • Hi Ryenwine, and welcome to the board.

    A tipping line is something we wouldn't discuss on this board, as it is related to gambling rather than the risk free offers we discuss here. However, I do understand that your question is about a premium line company rather than discussing gambling. For this reason I am going to try to move this post to the telephones board, since I think you may get a better reply there.

    I don't believe the 0200 number range exists (yet!)

    The telephone area code for most of Greater London and some surrounding areas is 020. It is not "0207", "0208" "0203" or "0200"

    The numbering range 020 0xxxxxxx is in use.

    The outfit the op wishes to contact now advertises a 0844 contact number

    The most important '0200' numbers are 020 0222 0700 and 020 0222 0900 - which are the gateway numbers best used on contract mobiles when trying to phone freephone numbers out of inclusive minutes.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.
