Unlike traditional landline phone numbers, 0300 numbers are not linked to specific geographic locations. The cost of calling an 0300 number within the UK is always the same as that of calling a normal home or business landline. If your phone tariff offers free calls to landlines at certain times of day – or has inclusive calls or bundled minutes that cover calls to landline numbers – calls to 0300 numbers (and all other 03 numbers) will be included in these deals in exactly the same way.
