11-88-48 (secret business number from 11-88-88)Cheaper than any other, 20p plus Vat, up to three numbers per call, no time limit and answered by a special team of thier best oeprators on higher money so you dont get any rubbish numbers.
This is only offered via thier corporate sales team to business who use directory enquires over 3000 times a month, but anybody can dial it from a BT or NTL line other networks whack on a charge so dont bother. They dont want it getting out as they dont make much money on it – use and abuse it when you can- cheap calls for all

The BT 118 707 number is being touted as a “no frills” number for businesses, to be similar to the old 192 service. I think BT are only publicising it by direct calls to main business customers. What about all of the BT UK directories on a single CD for £36 + VAT? DIY directory enquiries. (0800-833-400 detials in the new phone books)

Your entry relating to Core Telecommunications (Opal Telecom) is wrong. 118114 is run by Cable and Wireless.

Re Directory Enquiries Charges Comparison. According to the National Consumer Federation 11 88 88 is the cheapest at 20p! See comparison table at http://www.nfcg.org.uk/telecoms/call118.htm

You might want to have a look at http://www.marcuskern/info/118.htm. The cheapest number to call, at a flat rate of 19ppm, seems to be 118 800 (Torch Communications).

Cheers John – the BT 118 707 number is “new” and wasn’t around when I was compiling the list in December last year(!)
