Calling NG (902) numbers in Spain

Does anyone know which cheap international call providers carry calls to 902 number in spain ie. 00 34 902......? I think they're non-geographic numbers like 0870 numbers in the UK.

I usually use 18185 for overseas calls but it won't work for these. I tried a few of the other carriers listed on the International Call Checker last night but all those I tried gave messages saying that they didn't carry calls to special rate numbers and since I was running out of time I had to use BT.

I have to call again tonight so if anyone does know a cheap provider which works for this destination, that would be great. A few months ago when I had to call one of these numbers, I was at least able to use Tesco Talk (not particularly cheap but better than BT) because I was CPSd to them but now that I'm not, that's no longer an option.

    Numbers beginning in 900 are freephone numbers.
    · Numbers beginning in 901 are local call rate numbers.(Our 0845)
    · Numbers beginning in 902 are national call rate numbers.(Our 0870)
    · Numbers beginning in 906 are premium rate numbers

    Can you not find an alternative Spanish Geographical Number?

    sorry I'm too late for this evening - in case you need this again ...

    Try via 18185 and an 07744 number from Yourcallworld

    (or call via YCW direct from an Orange or T-mobile contract with inclusive minutes to mobiles)

    I'm not saying it will work, but YCW do have several (not all) countries' NGNs available like this, and I just reached a Spanish 901 number so there's a pretty good chance

    edit - I found and tried a 902 as well - works

    The number is for a hotel and I haven't been able to find a geographical equivalent. It's quite a new hotel so I can't find any old numbers for the same place.

  • Hi Redux,

    Yes I did miss your post last night. I will look into it for next time. Thanks.
  • You can normally fing the "real" number behind the 902 number using THIS WEB SITE. It is the Spanish equivalent to saynoto0870.com
