What are 0300 numbers?
New UK-wide 0300 numbers were introduced by Ofcom, the UK Telecommunications regulator in October 2007.

Unlike normal landline numbers, 0300 numbers are not tied to one specific area of the UK. Calls are simply pointed to an existing landline number.

Calls to 0300 numbers should cost the same as calls to geographic numbers, and be included as part of any inclusive call minutes or discount schemes for geographic calls.

0300 numbers are increasingly being used by public sector and not-for-profit organisations (such as registered charities) instead of 08 prefixed numbers.

How long does it take to set up an 0300 number?
We are required to ensure that all orders for 0300 numbers meet Ofcom’s ‘Criteria for eligible bodies for 030x telephone services’. This process normally takes 24 hours.

Once this process is completed your order will be fulfilled and you will receive an Order Confirmation by email.

Please wait for this confirmation before promoting your new number(s).

How do I pay for my number?
You will receive a full VAT invoice in the post. Unless otherwise agreed you have 14 days to pay this invoice.

Invoices are generated a month in arrears on or around the 16th of each month (so if you ordered a number in January, you would receive your invoice on or around the 17th February).

We accept payment by Direct Debit, Cheque/Postal Order, Credit/Debit Card and Telephone/Internet banking.

Details of how to pay appear on the back of your invoice.

If your organisation is required to use a Purchase Order and/or Cost Centre number please speak to one of our advisors on 0800 505 3210 9am-5pm, Monday to Friday.

Are 0300 numbers for everyone?
No. 0300 numbers are solely available to the public sector (including organisations with a .gov.uk or .nhs.uk website) and not-for-profit organisations such as registered charities.
