Landline divert to mobile

Hi,
My husband has his work phone on divert, so that if it isn't answered it diverts to his mobile.
If I ring the landline and it diverts, what will I be charged? Landline or mobile rates?
Many thanks

Landline (his firm pays for the diverted part of the call).Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.0

You can only ever be charged for the band of number you are calling. This is why international roaming charges are extortionate (well, one of the reasons). You cannot be held accountable for any redirection or extra costs if you are simply dialing a standard UK landline number.0

If you have an o2 mobile you can move your landline to o2. For £14 per month you can get up 2000 included minutes diverting from the landline to the mobile.
I read this elsewhere on the forum (can't find it now). This will save me about £1000 pa as I use constant divert to a mobile for business purposes. ( may only be relevant to o2 mobile business users). My experience of VOIP diversion is a slow connection which can put customers off so didn't want to use this.0
