(Updated for 2025)
Ever noticed how many businesses use 0330 numbers these days? From banks to bakeries, they’ve become the go-to alternative to old-style 084 or 087 numbers. But while they sound a bit official, calling one from Tesco Mobile is actually no different from ringing any normal UK landline.
In other words, no hidden extras or ‘premium-rate’ surprises. Whether you’re on a monthly contract or pay-as-you-go, Tesco Mobile treats 0330 calls just like numbers starting with 01 or 02.
