The Many Benefits of 0800 Number UK


The growth of non-geographic numbers (NGN) has been one of the biggest stories in the telecommunications industry over the past few years. These numbers are used almost exclusively by businesses in the UK. Though there are numerous benefits, perhaps the most popular reason to sign up for an NGN is that they do not use area codes.

This is important for businesses that plan to relocate but want to retain their old customer base. Since customers are far less likely to do business with companies in other regions, partly due to the phone charges, these numbers are essential. You see, when an old customer dials a non-geographic number, he is charged at the same rate as a local call.

But before you contact the cheapest internet service provider, there are a few things you should know. To begin with, there are different NGNs and each of them charge clients and their customers at different rates. For example, an 0800 number UK is completely free for customers to use. By comparison, 0844 and 0845 numbers charge a company’s customers at a rate of at the very least 2-5 pence a minute.

Which should you choose? It really does depend on the size of the business and how long they have been around. If, for example, you run a small business, it is essential that you build up company loyalty and you don’t do that by charging customers for their phone calls. However, for existing companies, it may be possible to get away with charging customers for calls if you provide them with superior customer service.

In the end, studies have shown that customers are far more likely to dial 0800 numbers, which they immediately identify as free, than company numbers they know they’ll have to pay for, even if it is a nominal fee. Therefore, we recommend that all new businesses invest unreservedly in 0800 numbers.
