How much does 1800 phone number cost

What does it cost to call an 1800 number as a caller?

In most cases, calling an 1800 telephone number is free of charge for the caller.

Exceptions may be:

- You call the 1800 number from abroad.

- You call from a cell phone.

In these cases it may be that a tariff is charged.

But if you call an 1800 number from a landline, from home or office in your own country, then an 1800 call is always free. In most European countries this is even stipulated by law.

Who pays the costs of the phone call?

The operator of the 1800 number takes care of the costs.

Why do companies pay for the call charges of an 1800 number?
For organizations where customer contact is very important for turnover, it is a logical choice to offer an 1800 number.

The advantages of a 1800 number for companies:

- Bring about a positive image for the company in question. 1800 telephone numbers are known as customer-friendly telephone numbers. This shows that the company is committed to customers, and takes customer service seriously. Leading professional organizations often offer a 1800 phone number.

- A company that offers an 1800 phone number will receive more calls from potential customers than a company that offers another phone number.

According to research, the number of calls would increase by about 25%.

- 1800 phone numbers are national phone numbers. This means that they can be called by callers from all over the country. The number is not linked to a specific city or region. So when the company provides products or services across the country, an 1800 number is a better choice than a local phone number.
