The 070 prefix is known as a Personal Number. It is used by companies or individuals who wish to promote a single number upon which they can always be contacted. Your callers dial your Personal Number and are routed to your office, home or mobile numbers seamlessly. 070 Personal numbers are often used by suppliers of call response systems who provide sophisticated automated telephone answering systems free of charge for receiving these calls. Sounds OK but, yes there is a catch. Calls to 070 numbers are often stated to be at local call rates (3.5p a minute). This is frequently untrue. Calls to 070 numbers are re-routed free of charge to the call receiver, often to mobile telephones or an overseas number. The caller pays for this which means that it is not possible to know in advance how much a call to an 070 number will cost and hidden call costs can easily exceed 50p per minute. The receiver of the call to an 070 number pays nothing and usually benefits in some way either via income from the call or perhaps a free manned call centre to take the call. Be aware that 070 Personal numbers can, at a glance, look like a mobile number but they will not be included in your mobile provider's standard rate or in your free minutes.
