We hope you find what you want on our website. However, the 118 800 phone service is still being tested and we know it's not yet perfect. So if something's not quite right for, we are really sorry but we are working hard to sort things out as quickly as we can.


Still seems to be broken now. The way they got the numbers seems wrong to me.

Seems people power is doing for the service.

Good.

We are undertaking some major developments to our 'Beta Service' to improve the experience for our customers. So the service isn't available at www.118800.co.uk or by phone. We'll be back as soon as possible .


I read elsewhere that they tried to sue O2 because they would not hand over their phone number list. Other networks were similarly reluctant to do the same. I do find it interesting that people regard their mobile phone numbers as more private than other stuff they out on line.
