The benefits of having an 0800 Number number
What is a 0800 phone number?
0800 numbers belong to a group of telephone numbers in the UK that are free to call (also known as toll-free around the world).
Are 0800 numbers free to call from a UK mobile phone?
As of July 2015, calls to 0800 numbers are free from both UK mobile phones and also UK landline or fixed line telephones.
Are 0800 numbers free to call?
0800 numbers are free to call from both landline telephone and mobile phones in the UK. The caller pays nothing to make the call.
0800 numbers are not free to call from outside of the UK. Businesses that advertise 0800 numbers, such as banks or credit card companies, will often have a geographic phone number as an alternative for callers from outside of the UK, such as 0207 123 XXXX.
How do 0800 phone numbers work? What is involved?
0800 numbers are known as virtual telephone numbers. They are not physically isolated to any one phone line and instead sit on top of another telephone number. Any calls that are made to the 0800 phone numbers are automatically diverted to the destination number, which can be to a landline telephone, a mobile phone, or even a phone number outside of the UK on the other side of the world.
Call Whisper
Similar in concept to Caller ID, Call Whisper allows you to identify which 0800 number was dialed. An example of this in action would be a marketing campaign across multiple magazines with unique offers, allowing the person that answers the call to better prepare for the type of enquiry they are likely to receive. Before the caller is connected, a short message is played to the person that answers the call. This message can be customised; popular examples include “Sales”, “Customer Services”, “Yellow Pages”, “Google AdWords” and so on. Call Whisper is particularly useful when paired with IVR (above), especially if a department or team is responsible for handling calls from multiple destinations.
Who does actually pay for the call to a 0800 number?
The business that utilizes the 0800 number (the number holder) pays for each connecting call – they pay on the caller’s behalf in other words.
Costs to the business can vary depending on the operator.
Here at Alphatalk, we’ve created a value for money package based on client feedback. Monthly line rental is just £9.97 per month, with 5,000 inclusive minutes for diversion to a landline (01, 02) telephone number of your choice. Any calls beyond the 5,000 inclusive minutes are charged at just 2p per minute.
IVR
IVR allows the creation of menus for when a caller is connected. Common with large businesses, IVR can help to quickly put callers through to the right department that can help with their query. IVR can also be of a benefit to smaller businesses that wish to appear larger than they actually are. The caller is none the wiser that calls to the sales or customer service department are actually handled by the same team!
