Say no to 0870

Just discovered, rather belatedly, SayNoTo0870.com.

Most companies in the UK use non-geographic (0870,0845 and variations) for customer service and other contact numbers. While these are nominally cheaper than a long-distance call, if you have an inclusive minutes package on your landline or mobile, these numbers are usually excluded and therefore cost more than a normal number.

SayNoTo0870 is a resource for finding alternatives to the published numbers.

A great idea.
