whilst BT charge signficantly less for 0845.

so VM charge the same for 0870 and 0845 but actually end up overall charging more for 0845 due to it never been inclusive, I guess due to the huge number of companies using 0845 now VM never include due to call volumes.
Sky Talk does the same.

The thing is, the cost of using a landline is just so expensive nowadays. Same with public payphones, the cost has been increased so high that people are put off from using them.

The thing about 0870 numbers is that most businesses are now migrating to 0844 or 0871 numbers so they can still get revenue share.

This is happening to 0845 numbers since they stopped revenue share.
