Subsidising business costs
If the cost of your customer services team is soaring then switching to a 0872 number could be the answer. Clients phoning your 0872 number from a BT landline are charged 8ppm including VAT of which you receive 2p.
How do I set up an 0872 number?
Registering as an 0872 provider
Because 0872 numbers count as premium rate lines, you will need to register as a provider with PhonepayPlus, the body which regulates premium lines. In most cases registration can be done quickly on line and is free. However, some industries such as gambling, counselling and chat rooms will require prior permission. This process carries a fee and can take from 4-8 weeks to complete.

The next step
Once you have your PhonepayPlus registration number simply choose which of the Callagenix range of 0872 numbers you would like and we set you up. You don’t even need to install another phone line. Callagenix routes your 0872 calls to any nominated phone number including mobile.

How much do 0872 numbers cost?
Using 0872 numbers will cost your clients 8ppm. There is no cost to you for setting up or maintaining an 0872 number unless you select a memorable number.
However, there will be an initial stationery cost as you have to show the cost of the call on your stationery and brochures (apart from B2B calls). It is therefore worth running your stationery stocks down prior to setting up your 0872 number.
Can I transfer my 0872 number?
Businesses with existing 0872 numbers can usually port them across to Callagenix. For more information on porting click here.
