Birmingham and Midshires Savings Non 0845 phone number

Options
I am trying to phone Birmingham and Midshires about an account I have already have with them. The only phone number that I can find is 0845 602828. As my provider charges high rated for 0845 calls does anyone know of regional or non 0845 phone number which are free for me for Birmingham and Midshires Savings . Thank you

    Use the number that they provide for overseas callers: +441902 428 311

    Just replace the +44 with 0

    It is always different this time. The only thing that is the same is the outcome.
    Portfolios are like personalities - one that is balanced is usually preferable.



  • there is nothing op saynoto0870 that works and putting 0 before overseas number does not work either, It blocks calls from the UK. Any other suggestions please

    Who is your provider? and how much do they charge for 0845 calls?

    That is interesting. Is your phone set up to send your number? If so, you could try setting it to 'Withheld' to see if that works.

    You have to withhold your number when dialing the number provided by Ark Welder.

    It works for me using my mobile when I withhold my number.
    Never let the perfume of the premium overpower the odour of the risk
  • We are on Virgin Media and it does not allow us to use 141 as number with held on an occasion basis. It says when dialling this number "This service is not available on this phone". So not sure where to go from here except to find an alternative phone number for Birmingham and Midshires savings.
