0845 numbers (or UK Local Rate numbers) are also good marketing numbers, and it is widely recognised that calls to these numbers are charged at local rate. While not quite so keen as 0800 numbers, they are cheap to call, and like all 08 numbers, give the impression that you are a national player.....
Why choose an 0845 number? When you are called on that number, our system forwards the call to a fixed line or mobile phone of your choice, anywhere in the world.
New: If you've got a VoIP: Voice over Internet Protocol - a protocol optimized for the transmission of speech over the Internet, and used in cheaper alternatives to traditional PSTN telephony system we can forward to that as well.
Range: 0845 (dmClub numbers begin 0845 686)
Cost to call: BT landline rates are 4p, 2p and 1p per minute Day, Night and Weekend (inc. VAT), more from mobile networks.
Image: Indicates a fairly big (possibly national) company. Similar to 0800 but with less of a sales/customer acquisition focus.
Fixed Cost of ownership: The owner may pay setup and rental but not call fees (unless the call needs to be diverted to an expensive destination such as mobile or high-tariff international regions). This makes them the cheapest to call option that has fixed costs of ownership. There may be a payout when diverting to the cheaper locations
dmClub 0845 numbers will divert to landlines in the Big34 countries without charge. Many popular destinations will even result in a modest payout - up to 0.75ppm for UK landline or 1.05ppm for VOIP-trunk
International accessibility: Good.
Regulatory issues: Ofcom have been wondering what to do about this range, but our best guess is that it will be unlikely to change in the next 2 years or so.
Mobile accessibility: All UK mobile operators overcharge for calls to 0845 numbers
Typical Applications: Usually in a soft sales or support situation where callers are not so cost-sensitive and the owner wishes to have fixed costs.
Often compared to 0844 numbers, although the public are more familiar with 0845 (which are also cheaper to call, specially at weekends)
