Here's exactly what happens from the moment you dial to the moment you hang up.
1. You dial an 09 number
UK adult chat lines run on 09 premium rate numbers. They work from landlines and most mobiles. Some mobile contracts bar 09 numbers by default; if yours does, you'll hear a message saying so and won't be charged.
2. You hear the price
Before anything else, a short message tells you what the call costs and who runs the service. This is a legal requirement. If you hang up during this message you won't pay the per-minute rate.
3. You hear the intros
Next you'll hear short recorded introductions from the women who are online right now. Each one says a little about herself so you can hear her voice and accent. They're recorded by the women themselves, and they change through the day as people come and go.
4. You choose and connect
Press the key for the woman you want and you're connected to her live. From here it's a private call between the two of you. Nobody else can join and other callers can't hear you.
5. You talk
There's no script. Some callers want a slow, flirty chat; others know exactly what they want. Say what you're after and she'll take it from there. If something isn't working, say so. These women would rather you enjoyed the call than sat through something you didn't want.
6. You hang up when you want
You're charged per minute, so you're in control of the cost. End the call whenever you like.
Are calls recorded?
Yes. Live calls are recorded to comply with Ofcom regulations. Recordings exist to protect callers and the women on the lines, and are used if there's ever a complaint.
Live vs recorded lines
Years ago a lot of adult lines were pre-recorded stories. You'd dial, listen to the same tape as everyone else and that was it. Live lines replaced them because people want a conversation, not a recording. Every line on this site is live.
