With these exceptions

0800 calls are charged at your normal rate

And came up with the answer of none. She would have been on the phone for hours. Just an addage if I have free minutes does that count. I would not mind it counting as free minutes.

Providing it's 0800 (not 087x or 084x) the call should be part of your free minutes bundle

Sherbert - you are correct! Many apologies to the OP for my incorrect info.

I'm shocked to discover that 0800/08/84x/87x are ALL charged at the same ridiculous 20p/min rate:
