How do I receive my Account details?

These are normally e-mailed to you but they can be faxed or posted.

Why are other access numbers also provided with the Calling Account package?

0208/0207/0845 numbers attract the cost of a local or national call charge from your phone service supplier. These rates are lower in the evenings and weekends and therefore add less to the overall call charge - one main advantage of these indirect access numbers number is that they can often be used with mobile phones especially with any "free minutes" allowance. Please check with your Mobile provider for details.

Currently the BT charge is as follows:

• If classed as "local": daytime - 3.95p; evenings - 1.49p; weekends - 1p
