What are numbers used for Premium rated services and other value added services?
Premium rated numbers are telephone numbers which result in higher price than ordinary calls or SMS when used locally or whilst roaming abroad. These numbers are usually used for TV or radio competitions, charity donations, voting purposes and others.
Calls or SMS towards value added services such as premium-rated, freephone, or shared cost services may not be part of your plan’s allocation and use of such services may result in out-of-plan, excess charges while roaming.
Kindly note that if you are in doubt whether a number is premium-rated or not, we recommend not calling or messaging such number. Keep in mind that Maltese premium rated numbers start with the number 5 whilst freephone numbers start with 800. We recommend using our list of numbers used for premium rated services and other value added services below in order to check if the number is used for premium rated, freephone, shared cost or other value-added services.
Calling Freephone toll-free numbers, shared and other numbers of other EU/EEA countries from Malta and whilst roaming in other EU/EEA countries, such numbers are charged according to the tariff you are subscribed to. Intra EU prices are kept at €0.224/minute including VAT.
