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.

Yes good point, many companies you can contact by email etc., but for GP surgeries to adopt phone numbers that cost their patients such a lot is really not very good at all.

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.

Yes I found that one, but its not "sayno" I just hopped "sayno" would be there as I use it a lot on my Mac

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 :(
