Title: B&Q vs Homebase
Post by Fusion on Aug 5^th, 2008 at 3:39pm

Just had to phone my local B&Q - was pleasantly surprised to find that the website lists only geographical numbers for every store.

Conversely, Homebase has only 0845.

I know where I will be going in future :)

This has been mentioned before. B&Q dumped its 0870 branch numbers two years ago.

Shouldn't B & Q be in the hall of fame.

I amended the "hall of fame" to show those organisations using 03xx numbers so we have a clear list of 03-users.

In answer to your question, there is perhaps room for an additional list of those who have "seen the light" and dumped their 084/087 numbers in favour of 01/02/03/080x.
