    There are also numbers like 0330 (or similar) which are free from mobile phones (as far as I know)

    I think I'm correct in this, not fully up to date.
    Not free, but billed just like 01 and 02 numbers, so if you've got minutes left in your bundle calls will come out of that.

    for example npower uses Freephone numbers starting 0800 (free from landline)

    Aren't 0800 free from mobiles too now?

    Yeah maybe. It's all very confussing. I don't know why we have both 0800 and 0330 these days.

    Because 0800 is free and 03xx are chargeable perhaps?
