I was charged for calling two UK numbers, both starting with ‘07893’.  Is this a special category number that is not included in my unlimited minutes?

The 07893 number is apparently a Non-Standard 07 number. 
Check online at https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/call-charges (see the here link).

Non-Standard 07 numbers are charged at 40p/min.

Need the next digit not all 07893 numbers are mobile numbers.

Hi @MarkK 

 

Unfortunately the number beginning with 078939 would be chargeable, we’d recommend adjusting your bill cap to a comfortable amount to avoid unwanted charges in the future.

 

Thanks @andewhite & @WelshPaul for the help here.
