Missed a couple of calls, worried!

TheFlyingTree

Okay, so, I've now managed to leave my mobile upstairs twice now and both times I missed a call from the same number: 0845 570 0019.

Has anybody heard of this number? I can't find it anywhere listed as a scam, and I don't want to miss out on a competition win or anything! Is it safe to call them back or could they charge me loads for it?

The call will incur an Access Charge of up to 12p per minute if called from a landline or up to 45p per minute if called from a mobile. Check with your provider for their exact rate. It will be the same rate for all 084, 087, 09 and 118 numbers.

In addition, you'll pay a Service Charge which is passed on and paid to the benefit of the called party and their telecoms provider. For 084 numbers it can be up to 7p per minute. For 087 numbers it can be up to 13p per minute. The rate depends on the exact number called.
