    Did you make any 07744 calls after 8 Apr?

    It is unfortunate that this thread has a title which was true in February but not now.

    Orange are charging these calls and will do so in future. The warning of premium rate tariff was introduced later than they intended, so I am promised that my 2 calls on 9 April will not be charged.

    There will be no point finding new 07744 numbers, as all such numbers are being treated like this, even fictitious incomplete ones.
