Premium Rate Numbers are telephone numbers for telephone calls during which certain services are provided, and for which prices higher than are usually charged. Unlike a normal call, part of the call charge is paid to the service provider, thus enabling businesses to be funded via calls. While the billing is different, calls are usually routed in the same way as they are for a toll-free telephone number, regardless of the location and area code used. These telephone numbers are usually allocated from a national telephone numbering plan in a way which makes them stand out from other numbers. Telephone companies typically offer blocking services to allow telephone customers to prevent access to these number ranges from their telephones. In some jurisdictions, telephone companies are required by law to offer such blocking.
