is there a way to get cheaper 0845 calls on mobile?
Hello,
My phone tariff includes calls to mobiles and landlines beginning with 01, 02, 03 but not 0845... I know there is a way to dial 0800 calls for the cost of a landline number from mobiles (so included within my tariff). Does anyone know of a similar thing for 0845 numbers, so that I could phone a 0845 number and it would come from my included minutes rather than paying 20p / min?
Many thanks

Sign up to a service like 1899 (https://www.call1899.co.uk), carrier pre-dial number with an 020 dial in number, then dial your 0845 number - it is currently 0.5 p per minute to dial 0845 numbers.
