HC Deb 27 October 1965 vol 718 c51W
2. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Postmaster-General what arrangements will be made to ensure that subscribers are not charged for wrong numbers when all-digit dialling is introduced.

Mr. Benn

The existing arrangements for ensuring that subscribers are not charged for wrong numbers, will not be affected by the introduction of all-figure dialling. Subscribers at present report wrong numbers to the operator who either establishes a call without further charge or arranges for a credit to be recorded.
