It does list a freephone (0800) number for Anytime. 0808 is just another
freephone prefix so it does not really matter which you use since the call
will be free either way. If they are migrating from the current 0800 listed
to the 0808 you have then I am sure they will update it when the time comes
or maybe they use two numbers to see how popular their software is versus
those of us who do not want to use it.
