Or do you mean the caller can make contact without notifying the recipient caller. If that is the case it Sounds Dodgy to me.

(via) O2 have apparently announced that they will be offering landline numbers to (business) mobile users here. £10 a month, £15 for an 0808, or free if you open a new account. No indication on that news release of any incoming call charges, though. They only say "your callers will be charged the standard landline rate for calling you – they won’t get charged any extra."

Didn't Orange used to offer landline numbers, albeit with incoming call charges?

This sounds quite a good idea as it gives the mobile user the choice about who pays the premium.

This does however depend on the charge incurred as working out to be nothing more that the difference. Diversion from a normal landline would mean that two calls were being paid for, as well as a fee for the diversion.
