The charges outlined on this website are specifically for O2, T-Mobile, Orange and 3 users calling the new short codes. Calls from other networks will not connect to these short codes.

Is there any additional charge other than those advertised?

No. We have exclusively negotiated with O2, T-Mobile, Orange and 3 to ensure our short codes have no connection fee, no minimum call charges, are billed per second, and have absolutely no hidden charges. You will only be charged the advertised pence per minute all-inclusive rate for the country you wish to call.

I used to use 07755 access numbers from T-Mobile is this the same service?

Yes, if you used to use 07755 numbers on your T-Mobile phone this service works exactly the same, all that has changed is the access codes 29 xx xx which are now much easier to remember. 07755 numbers have been removed from service. T-Mobile bill you directly as before and the rates remain the same or in some cases have been reduced to save you even more money.

I can’t dial the short-code because the new Orange sim card I bought won’t connect, why?

No problem, if the sim card is over 2 years old it won’t automatically register on the Orange network. You simply need to call Orange customer services on 0800 0790006 and they will activate the sim card for you
