Santander Telephone Banking Freephone Number?

Is there a Santander Telephone Banking Freephone Number I can use or will I have to wait until after 7pm to see if I can use the international number?


Virgin charge a fortune for 0845 numbers and calls before 7pm.
over 73 but not over the hill.

    It's a prefix, not a number.
    You have to open an account with them and register your telephone number(s).

    ETA: the prefix seems not to work with Virgin, but for this they offer 0808 free access number with 5p+1p/min cost instead of the prefix (4p+0p/min): http://www.18185.co.uk/mobilerates.php

    Use the number on the back of your card for calling from abroad.

    I always did that before Talktalk included 0845 calls in their package.
