0870 446 xxxx

Cost to call a 0870 UK Telephone Number
Should be the same as calling a landline (inclusive in most call packages).

Regulatory issues
No special issues since revenue sharing on this range has ended in 2009, so this range would most likely keep the same status in the near future.

Mobile accessibility
All mobile operators should charge the same rate as if calling from a BT landline, effective 2009.

International Accessibility: Decent
An international operator may charge more for a call made to a 0844 number than would be charged to a local geographic 01, 02, or 03 Number. Although many international operators may support this range, some will not support the 0845 range, and could be very unreliable to recieve calls into the United Kingdom from aboard.

Typical Applications
Now that 0870 range is now same as dialing a geographic number, we may see a return to their original purpose, a way to present a company imagine without having a regional bias. This range could be a great for nation wide companies and organisations needing a general customer service number for this purpose.
