    I looked today and although the page shows the correct number 0345 300 0000, when I did a copy paste of the link it brings up the 0845 300 0032 number so I don't know tbh
    There is a technical oddity with that web page. In Google search results showing that URL the 0845 number shows up in the snippet but isn't actually eyeball visible on the actual page. It's embedded in some code somewhere on the page.

    Lazy coders :)

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    What is "sr-only"?

    Is that "search results only"?

    If so, those who use the number shown directly in search results without visiting the actual page end up calling the wrong number.

    Not coded websites for a long time, out of the loop on what the code means, I just know how to read the source
