When you make a call from an ordinary fixed telephone line to another fixed telephone line, the price you pay for the call will depend upon where the two lines are located, that is, they are geographically based charges. In this section you can find numbers that, when you call them from your BT fixed line, are charged at prices that are the same irrespective of where you are calling from. That is, the charges are not geographically based.

Most but not all of those numbers, will be allocated to one of the following services:-

• Mobile Telephones
• "Freefone" Numbers
• Premium Rate Services
• Radiopaging Services
• Information Services

In many cases the number you are calling will not be for a service provided by BT and in those cases the prices you pay for making these calls will not have been set by BT.

The calls to these numbers are priced in one of four ways as follows:

• Calls that are charged by the length of time you are on the phone. The pence per minute price also varies according to the time of day.(e.g. 070056)
• Calls that are charged by the length of time you are on the phone but where the rate you pay does not vary by the time of day.(e.g. 0871550)
• Calls that attract a one-off fee, and a pence per minute price which varies according to the time of day.(e.g. 090117)
• Calls that attract a one-off fee irrespective of the length of time that you are on the phone. The charge may or may not vary according to the time of day.

If you are a customer for one of BT's call discount packages, you may find that the discount you receive for calling a Specialised Number is lower than for geographical calls or that the call is excluded from the discount scheme. Full details can be found in the BT Price List.

All Prices in this section are quoted inclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated.
