This number has shown up on our mobile phone bill. Allegedly, we’ve been chatting to them for more than five minutes. Yet, I’ve never placed a call to anyone in Chippenham!

It's a clever little trick to sidestep the charges for those 0800 numbers using your mobile. What you do is dial that specific number and hold tight for the prompt asking you to enter your 0800 number. Once you’ve done that, just press the corresponding key. Since it's a national rate call, and with most mobile contracts offering free minutes, you can actually connect to that 0800 number without it costing you a penny! A lot of mobile providers tend to hit you with fees when you call those types of numbers, so this little hack definitely saves you some dosh!

We received a call from this company that only lasted about 55 seconds, and right after we hung up, a recorded voice message kicked in. Would you believe it? Just moments later, the exact same number rang us again, and this time, we were on the line for 56 minutes! Our phone didn’t ring initially, but somehow this ended up charging us quite a bit. The charges for that call were quite substantial, to say the least.

It's a rather clever little trick, really. You know, there's this number you can punch into your mobile that allows you to dodge the charges typically associated with an 0800 number. When you ring this particular number, just hang on a sec for the prompt asking you to key in the 0800 number you wish to reach, and then you press the hash key. Since it's a national dialling rate, and most mobile plans include free minutes for calls to these numbers, it means you can effectively call the 0800 for absolutely nothing. It's worth noting that quite a few mobile providers do tend to apply fees for calling such numbers, so finding this workaround is definitely advantageous!

We received a call from this company which, astonishingly, lasted for 55 minutes. Shortly after hanging up, we were greeted by a recorded message. A mere two minutes later, we apparently rang the same number again, and lo and behold, that conversation dragged on for 56 minutes! Strangely, neither of these calls showed up on our phone records, yet they still appeared on our bill, leading to some hefty charges. Quite baffling, to say the least!
