Who Called Me From a 0900 Number? Premium-Rate Cost Warning
A 0900 number is a UK premium-rate number, regulated by the Phone-paid Services Authority (PSA). Calls to 09 numbers carry a service charge (up to £3.60 per minute or up to £6 per call) on top of your provider's access charge, and they are NEVER included in inclusive minutes. Premium-rate ranges are used for some legitimate services (competitions, voting, technical support) but are also heavily abused by scammers who try to lure you into calling back.

Frequently asked questions about 0900 numbers
How much does 0900 cost in 2026?
0900 calls carry a service charge of up to £3.60 per minute (or up to £6 per call) plus your provider's access charge of typically 5p-65p/min. They are never included in inclusive minutes, so an 0900 call can cost several pounds.
Is 0900 a scam number?
The 09 range is used by some legitimate premium services, but it is also a classic scam vehicle — "call this 0900 number to claim/resolve" prompts are designed to keep you on an expensive call. Never call back an unknown 0900 number from a missed call, text or pop-up.
Are 0900 calls included in my minutes?
No. Premium-rate 09 numbers (0900, 0901, 0906, 0908, 0909) are explicitly excluded from inclusive minutes on every UK landline and mobile plan. You pay the service charge plus access charge in full.
