The offer states clearly which pre-fix numbers are included. It does not state anywhere that all non-geographical numbers are included.
Therefore I don't think you have any recourse to complain.0 -
Still a bit lame if it includes 0800 but not 0808 though.
Anyway, if it's just for 0808 numbers why not follow http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/phones/cut-cost-0800-mobiles0 -
Still i did ask the customer services people does this service include ALL free phone numbers - the answer was yes...clearly a NO. however lesson learnt in reading the smallprint0

I have the bundle and the following are included:
0845
0870
0800
0500
0808
If they tell you 0500 and 0808 are not included, they are talking sh*te. I have posted proof on here previously, and I call 0808 and 0500 regularly.I spent 25 years in the mobile industry, from 1994 to 2019. Worked for indies as well as the big networks, in their stores also in contact centres. I also hold a degree in telecoms engineering so I like to think I know what I’m talking about 😂0 -
