Help ! Free 0845 Service Provider

Can anyone help with a 0845 service provider?

We are a homebased business and a number for our nearly completed website.
Is there any service which provides a free number/s and no set-up costs/charges:confused:

Is there any that may pay for incoming calls.:confused:

As I am looking at all possibilties.

Any help,suggestions and solutions are urgently needed!

Thanks in anticipation.:j

If there are any other reliable free 0845 providers please let me know!

    There are a few companies like this around, though you might find it useful to pay a few pounds for a memorable number. I chose mine at £10 each from here which also allows me to examine where and when calls are made.

    You can have a free 0845 or 0871 number from http://www.sipgate.co.uk but you need your computer on most of the time.

    Hope this helps.
  • Many thanks for your suggestions. Would have liked some more providers so I could compare cost and features.

    Thanks for your time:j :T
  • Thanks for our response.:T

    Cheers:beer:

    Is there any charges for redirecting your calls:confused:

    I have only done it once and no charge incurred. As an aside there isnt much money to be made from 0845 unless you have masses of calls so I chose my provider following a recommendation of their service. I have never had a single problem and they have been very helpful, like I said I did have to payfor the numbers but I got the ones I preferred.
  • You might as well get the sipgate which is free and it works similar to Skype In.

    And it is great.
