Can't call 0901 numbers.

I can't call 0901 numbers to vote in eurovision. At this point I'm beginning to wonder if there are any **bleep** numbers I can call on this wretched network.

What's the point of this top up crap if it can't be used for anything?

    Hi Christo_2934468 

    With a SMARTY SIM, you cannot call 0901 numbers as part of your plan. 0901 numbers are premium-rate numbers, and SMARTY plans do not include calls to such numbers. These numbers are typically associated with chargeable services or entertainment. 

    Premium numbers:

    Calls to numbers starting with 09, 070, 084, or 087 are not included in the plan and will be charged.
    Add-ons:
    To call premium numbers, you may need to apply a chargeable add-on to your SMARTY account.

    (remove the spaces between the h t t p s)

    Hope this helps x

      Unfortunately it doesn't help - I'd already added the chargeable add on and it didn't work.

        Christo_2934468 0901 numbers do not appear in the Smarty Price Guide which indicates that they are not available.
