I noticed that when i dialled the Simply-Fone No 07744 97 3333 from my inclusive minutes on my T Mobile contract phone it allowed me call 0870 numbers,but not 0844, or 0845.Useful if you really have to dial a 0870 number.

    I think you'll find that 0845 numbers are available - email 9 Apr
    I just used your 07744974333 to call 0870 and 0845 numbers; it worked. I thought I tried this before and it didn't. Has this been recently introduced; is it only available at certain times; or is my memory defective?


    Thank you for your feedback and past & continued custom.

    The calls you mention to 0870 & 0845 are now available at any time & your memory is not defective !
