I'd say there there certainly appear to be 'normal' (mobile number) alternatives because Sky News occasionally put the alternative to 84501 on screen when requesting texts from overseas viewers.

I can't remember the entire number but it was 07

???

501 501

I suspect, though, that only someone with inside information in each case could supply each one.

After years of ignoring govt. guidelines & RIPPING OFF Council Tax payers using 0845 numbers, Essex County Council changed to 0345 numbers on 2 November 2015

They normally are (e.g. Sky News say 84501 costs "25p + your normal text rate" - although I cannot imagine what 'added value service' the short number provides in order for it to 'qualify' as premium rate).

It is, of course, the added value to the provider, just like with 087 Scamtel. More income and no regulatory controls - courtesy of Ofincomp.
