Is there any reason the UK's 0800 REVERSE is part of this article? There is no seperation between the services of the two countries, and there is even confusion with GBP's used as the currency for the Australian service.

0800_REVERSE redirects here, but I think it would be much better to remove the rediretion and create a seperate page. I'm happy to do the split, just wanted some opinions before I go ahead and do it. Whippen (talk) 08:52, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The mixed references to 1800 Reverse and 0800 Reverse on the same page may cause confusion. 1800 Reverse (Australia), 0800 Reverse (United Kingdom), and 1800 Reverse (Republic of Ireland), each service distinct domestic markets. Given that each of the services applies a different currency (AUD, GBP, and EUR, respectively), and require different access numbers to use the service (18007383773 in Australia and Ireland; 08007383773 in UK), it seems that explanation of each service should be compartmentalized, to enhance the consistency and credibility of the information provided to prospective users and the general public.

I propose that: (1) A new 0800_Reverse page be created and content concerning the 0800 Reverse service be migrated to this new, dedicated page; and (2) That the existing 1800_Reverse page be reconfigured to primarily reference the Australian 1800 Reverse service in the top-of-page content, with references to the Irish 1800 Reverse incorporated under the existing ‘Other Countries’ sub-heading.

I would be happy to make the above structural changes, or to assist in further discussion regarding the most coherent architecture of the content. Full Disclosure: I am currently employed by 1800 Reverse.--MikeAa (talk) 00:12, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

/br I have added reference supported information about the Irish 1800 reverse service, this is operated by reverse Corp ltd too and uses identical branding and advertising. I made a subheading for other countries and moved the Uk 0800 reverse there together with info about the equivilant services in Spain and France. Solair09 (talk) 22:08, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Possible merger

Would it be useful to merge this article with Collect call and add information about similar services, such as 08000mumdad [1]? Please discuss. Biscuittin (talk) 11:44, 10 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Y Merger complete. --DarkCrow^Caw 16:22, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
