    I'm not with 3 so I can't comment on your problem but use the below site for alternative numbers it will save you getting charged for the call.

    Its a premium number, some times they are not allowed by default on an account and you just have to ring customer care and ask them to turn them on. Thats how I have found it with vodafone anyways, im sure same applies with 3.

    It probably gets somehow classified as premium alright even though it's not.

    You sometimes have to have paid several bills on time or pay a bill in advance or something like that before some networks will lift the bar on premium and international calls.

    Ring 1913 customer care and ask what's going on or use the talk to three forum on boards.

    Also, I'd avoid 1850, 1890 and 0818 like the plague! Always Google for a landline alternative (often listed as the from abroad / international number).

    You'll be charged at high, out of bundle rates for the call otherwise.

    Warning: it can cost an absolute fortune to ring those numbers. I got chatting with a nice woman on a directory enquiries number a few years ago, still remember my heart leaping into my mouth when I got the bill!

    Be very very careful out of bundle a lot of these " call save " numbers with 3 ... Had a huge bill years ago over them while on contract ... Agree say no to 11890 or whatever is way to go
