Can you help other SayNoTo1890.com users by providing geographical alternatives for these numbers below: Colgate Dental Check Up Offer – 0818 444 849 (who by the way make misleading claims on their website about the cost of calls to this number) …
Just noticed this on the Bank Of Ireland website – If calling from your mobile, the new number for Bank of Ireland phone banking services is 0818 365 365. If you are calling from a landline, however, you can still use 1890 365 365. From 8th September 2…
This link came up in a Google Alert recently. It shows two reasons why Imagine WiMax won’t provide their customers with a geographical alternative for their 1890 customer care numbers. Their first response to a customer query was: The reason we h…
Back at the start of the month, I published a request to see if anyone can help out by letting us know the geographical alternatives for a series of numbers. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been much of a response so far. So, check out the listing he…
Just a note to some people who think that SayNoTo1890.com can be used for free advertising. If you think about it, being listed on this site is really a reason for shame rather than self-promotion. If you’re a company that only provides an 1890, …
Many thanks to all the SayNoTo1890.com users who’ve e-mailed the site in the past 6-8 weeks with geographical alternatives for 1890, 1850 and 0818 numbers. The A-Z page has now been updated with the following numbers: St Rapheals Garda Credit Uni…
I’ve written on Monday and Tuesday about the new ComReg consultation paper that is looking to deal with the reason behind this site – the increased cost of calling 1890/1850/0818 numbers from mobile phones and landline users using bundles o…
In the three years since I set up the SayNoTo1890.com website, many people have talked a good game with regards to the misleading descriptions given to Lo Call and Call Save telephone numbers for those calling on landlines and mobiles using bundled min…
ComReg have recently published a Consultation paper for review and response by interested parties before close of business, Friday September 17th. This consultation paper is extremely relevant to this particular site as it relates to the usage, adverti…
Over the past couple of months, SayNoTo1890.com users have e-mailed the site with requests for geographical alternatives to 1890, 1850 and 0818 numbers for certain companies who seem to want to make it hard for their customers to call them in the most …
Many thanks to everyone who has sent e-mails in the past 6-8 weeks to me here. I am currently making my way through them and hope to respond via some new blog posts on the website here in the next week or so. My apologies if you’ve been waiting s…
For many people who have inclusive bundles of minutes with their landline
and mobile phone packages, you’re still charged extra to call 1890, 1850 and
0818 numbers. The calls sometimes cost more than you’d expect given they’re
called Lo Call or Call Save numbers, especially when calling from mobiles.
This website will provide you with geographical alternative phone numbers

I’m just trying out something that might help spread the word on SayNoTo1890.com. There’s a respectable group of regular users of SayNoTo1890.com – all of whom realise that it’s a site that can save you money every time that you…
Many thanks to all those using SayNoTo1890.com and to those who have sent me in new alternative numbers, or updates to existing one. In the past few days, I’ve updated the A-Z page with these new numbers: Bord Gais Networks 1850 200 694 – C…

This e-mail came through from a user of the SayNoTo1890.com website in the recent past.
Came across your website after seeing Which? article about saynoto0870.com. My bugbear is Sky customer services 0818 number – I had 4 hours of phone calls to them (trying to fix problem they caused with their new viewing cards!) If I [...]
This is a trick that used to be used by NTL/UPC before they started focusing on their 1906 number. This e-mail from a SayNoTo1890.com reader shows that Dunnes Stores are doing the same thing:
just off the Dunnes Stores helpline. On the website you are directed to 1800-678999 but once as you call it says if [...]
Recently I wrote about a complaint submitted by a SayNoTo1890.com reader to the Advertising Standards Authority of Ireland (ASAI) about a florist in Waterford who advertised their 1850 number as a freephone number.
I myself made a complaint to the ASAI about one of the radio adverts for the Jack And Jill Foundation.
This one, voiced by [...]

This interesting e-mail came through from a reader of the SayNoTo1890.com in the past couple of weeks.
I found out the alternative phone no. for Clean Ireland. It says 1890 361 800 on their website. I couldn’t find the alternative online so I decided trying the prefix 061 instead of 1890 and it worked. 061 is [...]
This e-mail came through from a SayNoTo1890.com reader in the past couple of weeks.
A suggestion for you, not sure how easy or difficult it will be but an App for the iphone will be handy for when you are on the road, hope that 1 of the readers is a good app developer that could [...]
There are a couple of companies listed on the A-Z page where the geographical alternative number is actually an 048 Northern Ireland number.
As suggested by one of our SayNoTo1890.com readers, you should check with your phone provider if calls to (048) are included in your free local calls as part of your phone package. Depending [...]
