How much does it cost to call an 0870 number?
0870 Numbers are often associated with being a premium rate number with varying degrees of cost depending on the company you are calling. On the 1st July 2015 Ofcom standardised the cost of calling an 0870 number and the cost is now broken down into two parts. The first part is an ‘access’ charge which is the fee your phone company charges you per minute which is usually between 25p and 45p per minute. The second part is a ‘service’ charge which is levied by the organisation or company you are calling. This can be up to 13p per minute on top of the access charge.
