If you have a landline telephone or mobile phone, then the chances are you have been contacted by your provider about changes that Ofcom are bringing in to place from the 1st July 2015 to make it easier for everyone to understand the actual cost of dialling specific numbers.
Hence the name of the campaign – UK Calling: Clear Call Rates for Everyone!
As a result of these changes you will notice some differences on the Psychic Sight website and in corresponding advertising.
Currently the advertised cost of our Premium Rate calls – those numbers starting 0906 11 are £1.53 per minute. There may also be some corresponding terms: From a BT Landline, + standard network rate or network charges may apply.
From the 1st July 2015, the price and wording for calls to our numbers will change as follows: 0906 11 calls cost £1.50 per minute plus your phone company’s access charge.
From 1 July 2015, the cost of calling service numbers will be made up of two parts:
• An access charge: This part of the call charge goes to your phone company, charged as pence per minute. They will tell you how much the access charge will be for calls to service numbers. It will be made clear on bills and when you take out a contract.
• A service charge: This is the rest of the call charge. The organisation (Psychic Sight) you are calling decides this, and will tell you how much it is.
The new rule will impact numbers that start 084, 087, 09 and 118. The changes do not impact numbers to ordinary landline numbers such as those starting 01, 02, 03 or mobiles (07) numbers. They will also not alter payphone calls, international calls or calls to the UK if roaming abroad.
In a further change, calls to Freephone numbers starting 0800 or 0808 will be free to mobile users as they are to existing landline users.
