Just a some queries on 0800 numbers for VFX lines:

1. I assume it is possible to port 0800 numbers to VFX?

2. Would this be setup as a virtual number, i.e. it would terminate on a 950xxxx (or whatever) VFX number?

3. This would not be considered an additional line i.e. if a customer had 2 VFX lines, plus an 0800 number terminating on one of these lines, they won't be hit with business rates on their line?

4. What rates would be applicable - your normal VFX rates to the calling party?

Thanks

It would be cool if they had something to what you can get on a vodafone mobile (Free2Call).

I have this on a causal plan, no monthly fee, about 35c a min incoming I think (It's around that anyway)

Sorry 0800 number porting is not part of LNP with WorldxChange at this time, possiblly in the future but not at present,

You can get a WxCl 0800 with us 080012x xxx or 080014x xxx and have that terminating to your VFX line ,

1. There is no monthly fee for the 0800
2. Normal Rates apply to the calls ie what ever your rate plan is I believe, check with our Sales or Custcare guys for exact details.

How does this relate to 0800 number portability apparently being possible right now:

Is this just a case of WxC not signing up to this option at this stage, rather than it not being possible?

Yes correct, I should have explained this a little better. WorldxChange is not a party to the 0800 Number Portability at this stage
