The RSPCA is one of the first 03 numbers I've seen. They give it on the home page and I can call it from my BT line, but not through the prefix 18185.

Working via 18185 now.

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

Andrews & Arnold have a couple of test numbers - 03000 400123 and 03333 400123.  If you can connect to these, you will hear your CLI being read to you.

T-Mobile now seems to be live with 03333 although with some noisy sidetone, but not connecting to 03000 yet.

Cheers, Nick

I can also confirm that 03333 numbers are diallable from an O2 mobile, but not the 03000 number.

They are also not diallable from Skype or Gizmo (another VoIP provider).

Just to confirm that 0300 numbers are now callable from O2 mobile - I've just tried the A&A 0300 number and it worked fine. I haven't tried from my VoIP providers yet though.

Using Voipstunt, "the number you dialed is invalid"

Complain to Orange (numbers in the database if you need them Wink) and tell them to get their butt in gear!

If they don't, complain to Ofcom.

Not worth complaining to Ofcom.  Only BT are obliged to carry ALL calls - all other operators can pick and choose what type of number they want to carry.

It's probably a case that Orange and the telephone company that owns that specific 03 number haven't negotiated a fee for carrying the call, etc or a simple case that Orange hasn't opened their network to that specific 03 number range (assuming fees have been negotiated).

I did so at 11:30 this morning.

Bringing in this range was said to be work in progress.

I gave a very gentle push.

It is now working.
