Alternative free phone numbers

Say No to 0845 numbers! Alternative free phone numbers here! This is a really good site. You know all these 0845 and 0870 numbers you're given to deal with your bank, or renew car insurance are chargeable to call. Well, simply type in the number you've been given, and if there's an alternative direct line, charged at either low rate or free, it will be listed! Pay less for your phone calls :-) Click below

I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.

    I think he was trying to say that saynoto0870 is a long established site so it seems unusual that somebody might only just have discovered it. I've been using it for very many years. There are mobile apps available too such as 0800 wizard, 0870, WeQ4U etc
    “You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.”
  • Thank you Chameleon, I was not aware that it was a well established site but I would also presume that others especially newer members would also be in the same boat.
