0871 Numbers how do they work

0871 numbers are ‘virtual’ meaning they sit on an existing landline or mobile. When a customer dials your virtual 0871 number, the call is instantly routed to your existing landline or mobile number. Numbers can be set up quickly and you don’t need to install and maintain any software or hardware.

0871 numbers allow your business to earn up to 8 ppm (pence per minute) from every call received on the 0871 number. These numbers are a popular choice for offsetting the costs associated with running call centers and offering telephone technical assistance.

It is essential to inform the caller about the Service Charge when calling your 0871, Customers must be informed of wait times so they can make an informed decision as to whether they continue to hold for a free line or disconnect a call. This is a must during times of high call volumes. When advertising an 0871 the cost rate per minute of the Service charge should be stated and we recommend that you state  that the cost is 10p* per minute at all times
