Who Called Me From a 0345 Number? UK Local-Rate Range
A 0345 number is a UK local-rate non-geographic number. Businesses, banks and customer-service lines use 0345 because calls cost the same as a standard 01/02 call and are included in inclusive minutes. 0345 is NOT premium-rate, NOT freephone — but is much cheaper than the older 0845 ranges.

Frequently asked questions about 0345 numbers
Is 0345 free to call?
No, but it is cheap. 0345 numbers cost the same as a standard 01 or 02 call from any UK landline or mobile, and are included in any inclusive call minutes you have.

A 0345 caller is typically a bank, large business or government body. Type the full 11-digit 0345 number into the free checker on this page to see the original Ofcom range holder.
Is 0345 the same as 0845?
No — these are very different. 0345 is local-rate (same as 01/02). 0845 is a service number that carries a service charge of up to 7p/min in addition to your access charge. Banks and other businesses have largely migrated their numbers from 0845 → 0345 in recent years specifically to remove that extra charge from their customers.
How much does 0345 cost from a mobile?
Calling 0345 from a UK mobile costs the standard rate from your mobile contract — the same as calling a 01/02 landline. Inclusive minutes apply, so on most plans the call is effectively free.
