Hi all, anyone know what is behind the main booking number of 09063022030?

Doesn't seem to come up anywhere else?

The alternative number for bookings is 01901 4907901.

The 0901 number is a new one to me for bookings.
It is 0870 850 9 850 according their website.

Thanks for the numbers, but they are public booking numbers.

What I'm trying to get behind is the expensive number they provide for travel agents (which is the number I posted up). Clearly it must have a terminating number somewhere?

Pity you didnt give full facts in first place ;)

BA are using the 090 number legitimately(Provision of Info etc to Travel Agents).Unlike 0870 etc being lumbered on Joe Public.

Hi,

I hope you can help me.  I am trying to find an alternative number for ba sales and reservations.  The 0845 number listed on your site did not work and the 0191 490 7901- a message says the line is not available.

Thanks!

Confirmed below from google:
British Airways 0870 850 9850
00 44 191 490 7901
00 44 191 490 7901


I have just tried this number and it worked for me and I spoke to a nice and very helpfull lady who advises that I am through to the "sales and reservations number" which is 0870 850 9850 - I actually dialled 141 (to withhold) then 0191 490 7901 then selected option 1 (exec. club member)  

Easy~peasy !  :)                    

Chewiemonster,

As mentioned by IAVOID0870, the 0191 490 7901 (listed in the database) does actually work as I also tried it.

What do you mean by it doesn't work?  Did you mean they wont deal with your call once they answer or that the number doesn't work?

There is also a freephone number for BA Exec Club: 0800 123 111.  Option 1 is reservations.  Worth trying even if you are not an Exec Club member. The line is open 06.00- 20.00 hours.

Hi has anyone please got a geographical alternative for 0870 850 8504? I've tried through the BA operator and she said I can't be transferred through to that department. Thanks.  :)

If all else fails, you might be able to use the american version by using a dial thru

British Airways web-support team (800-403-0882).

I have updated the entries for British Airways.

0191 490 7903 is for staff use only, so I've removed it.
7904 is answered with a recording saying it's not in use, as is 0800 727800. They redirect to 0844 493 0787 and I have removed them.

Alternatives are 0191 490 7900, 7901 /02 /05 /06 & higher.

The alternative number 0844 493 0787 given for British Airways is 0191 490 7900.  Unfortunately BA have put a block on that number so you can only call it from outside the UK.  >:(

Good Afternoon, have you tried calling from a withheld number on a mobile? I did just now on Giff Gaff and it went through.

I didn't hold long enough to check what it advised, but it was an IVR menu.

Please let us know.

:)

I've just tried this from Virgin landline and it connected first time. Number not withheld

I have not thought of withholding a number from my mobile to contact some of these companies as I have not used my mobile in the past for these calls.


I know to prifix numbers with 141 but can you please let me know how to withhold a number from a mobile.

141 works from mobiles, just as landlines.

Which mobile do you have?

Generally .. settings, call settings, caller Id, or perhaps hide number?

Depends on phone manufacturer and model.

The number is blocked inside the UK but if you withhold your number (141) then it works!

1410191 490 7900 for general inquiries. On hold now on my iPhone...

No need worry about  that. The Company use 03 numbers mainly now

0344 493 0787 will give you general enquiries.

bigjohn beat me to posting the revised number for British Airways (BA)  :) :)

It's also in the database  :)
