0300 Numbers
0300 Numbers are reserved exclusively for use by government departments and public services, healthcare, charities and non-profit making organisations. They are used by the DVLA, NHS, and the RSPCA among many others.
How 0300 numbers work
There’s no need to buy any new equipment when you get a Planet Telecom 0300. We simply connect your new number to an existing landline or mobile of your choice. (And you can change this whenever you want to). Naturally you can still use the destination phone to make and receive calls using its original number.
From just £12.50 a month with free connection
Put simply, the more memorable the number is, the more it costs. But our basic Bronze range numbers cost just £12.50a month with FREE connection. Our more memorable Silver, Gold and Platinum ranges have a small connection charge to pay, as well as slightly higher monthly fees.
Here at Planet Telecom we’ve always got a massive range of numbers to suit every organisation and every budget. Browse our selection right now…
What if the calls aren’t included in customers’ packages?
The majority of landline and mobile packages include 0300 numbers as a matter of course. But in the rare instance that a customer’s inclusive minutes package doesn’t cover them, they’ll simply pay the same per minute rate as if they were calling an 01 or 02 number outside their package allowance.
Add automated call handling to give customers an even better response
There’s more to our 0300 numbers than free calls for your customers. Automated call handling is a great way to add a sophisticated range of virtual switchboard services to your numbers, from just £5 a month. These include greetings messages, automated out-of-hours rerouting to mobiles, call queuing and voicemail-to-email. Find out more about our add-ons
Manage your 0300 numbers from your online dashboard
Want to change the number your 0300 is redirected to? Easy, just log into your Planet Telecom online dashboard and make the switch in seconds. You can change the receiving number as often as you need to, completely free. (Remember, though, there is a 5p per minute surcharge on calls routed to a mobile.) Your dashboard is the place to manage any automated call handling services you’ve chosen, too.
