• Bronze - usually has 1 double number within the telephone number for example 0871 716 3200
• Silver - usually has 2 double numbers within the string for example 0871 716 7876
• Gold - these numbers are a combination of double numbers and a number sequence for example 0871 716 3000
• Platinum - these either have 3 double numbers or a memorable string for example 0871 71 66 999.
