    It's a freephone number (just like all other 0800, 0808 and 0500 numbers).

    It's "Toucan Customer Care"
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    Freephone Numbers
    Section: The Special Services Range (Convention B8)

    Operator: IDT Global Ltd

    A table of the code allocations for numbers in The Special Services Range (Convention B8) starting 0800 is available

    Number 08000 613615 is potentially valid.

    Oftel records show that numbers starting 08000 61 are allocated (operator unknown). Note that due to number portability if an individual number has moved to a different operator this information is not publically available. Notes: Freephone Numbers. Oftel's last recorded change for this number range was in 10 digit numbers.

    Notes: 10 digit numbers

    BT make no charge for calls with this code.
