Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Over at digi spy there seems to be a bit off confusion whether its for mobiles or not but upon when i registered it clearly said home phone.

Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I hope I get one - I am having to make a lot of 0845 calls at the moment and they are mounting up

Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I'd guess it's package dependent in that it will be free only if you have inclusive minutes at the time of day you would call it. As we have only weekend calls then I'd not expect it to be free for us during the week but certainly at the weekend.
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I had the same letter and signed up this morning. It said that the 250 minutes could be used at any time.
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
So are only certain people getting this? I have to faff about looking for alternatives to 0845/0870 numbers. It would be nice if I didn't have to do this.
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I got a letter after returning from a few days away - will be signing up.
Always used 'saynoto0870' so this will be good. |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
the 'saynoto0870' app is one of the first things I install on a phone, it's available on android, iphone and blackberry
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I got a letter today as well. I have been onto VM site to register, but I can't find how to do it.....:dozey:
Can anyone tell me how to register on there please? TIA, WWAS. |

Thanks PsyCrow, I know the link is in the letter virginmedia.com/justforyou
All it does it take me to VM's site and no option to register for the Talk08 add on. I have trawled through all the pages and there's no option anywhere for me to register. |

Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Hi PsyCrow, thanks for that, I clicked on the link you provided and it took me straight there, and I registered ok.
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Didn't work for me
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Worked fine here, just need to follow the link in the letter.
Wait until 15th August and email before activated. |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Its actually better than that (turn your letter over) - from August you will get 0870 calls (but NOT 0845) included in your particular tariff, in the same way and to the same extent as 01,02 & 03.
The add-on you have to register for covers 250 minutes of 0845 calls or 0870 calls outside the time of day/week covered by your tariff bundle. Yes, I know its as clear as mud and the way the two will work together will have to be clarified but its a start. |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
got my letter,got to the link although it took some time
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I received a letter this morning about price increases and the free 0870 calls. There was no mention of registering for 0845 numbers.
Will this be sent under separate cover or is it just for the chosen few? Did I ask this yesterday? *confused* |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Just for the chosen, I'm afraid.
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I got a letter today which is probably the same that Moira received. I have the Anytime Call package, and the letter stated that calls to 0870 numbesr will be free and included in this package from 1st August. You don't have to register, I guess registration is only required for other packages, I don't really know:confused:
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
From what I gather everyone gets the free 0870 calls from August, but only the chosen few get the 0845 deal. I actually think it's quite unfair as I'm sure we all try to avoid calls that are going to cost us money on top of what we are already paying. It's one thing giving away 1,000 free TIVO boxes to the 'lucky few' as you can't really expect them to give them free to everyone, but I think this is just plain mean :rolleyes:

Not sure what package you have to be on to get the free 0845/0870 deal, but the friend I have who has just got it has a more basic package than ours. I always use the saynoto0870 site but over the years it's got harder to find numbers as more companies change to only having the paid numbers :rolleyes: |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
What you should fairly be saying @AlabasterLyn is that companies who use these numbers (which give them revenue at our expense) should be using 01-03 numbers or better still freephone numbers. This is especially galling when it is a communications company profiting from poor service as Virgin tried to do previously.

Re: 0845/0870 just for you
0870 numbers are free as part of your inclusive allowance from August :) Info from price increaae e-mail today
|
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I got the 'price increase' letter last week but have to admit I didn't read it carefully. I saw this thread and dug it out this morning, and right there in the middle of the letter was the information about the 'just for you' offer so have signed up. I wouldn't have even noticed it if I hadn't seen this thread - and even reading this thread I thought it was a separate notice to the increase letter, but it wasn't.

The reviews on 0870 are not good but I suppose they will be subjective Thanks for the reply, |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Can anyone confirm the date this is supposed to kick in? I registered for the 'Just For You' promotion, and I note the only date in this thread is 15th Aug, but I have yet to recieve my email confirming it is all active. I can't remember what the date on the registration screen was, as an email never followed and I didn't write it down.
Has anyone else got their email yet? |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
I got an email only last week saying this had now been activated on my line.
So I have a feeling it was like a queue system and someone somewhere will let you know when it has been activated as long as you filled out the info correctly at the time of sign up however. |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Thanks.
Looking at my online account now, it is showing two changes showing as initiated from 02/08 (though they did not show at that time): Telephone Line Rental Talk 08 2 Changes to bundle total - £0.64 I'm not sure why the 64p charge, I assume that's to do with the line rental change which must be to do with the price increase? I expect I'll see when the full bill is issued. I have yet to receive an email telling me this change has been activated, or what the '2' means at the end of 'Talk 08 2'. Oh well. |
Re: 0845/0870 just for you
Mine is showing the charge then lower down it's showing a refund of the charge as I signed up for the free offer. The discount is shown separate from my bundle.
Also worth noting something that might seem obvious but 0844 numbers are not included. I've had a couple of calls to them this month and they've been charged. So we still need the saynoto0870 website for those :( |
