1850 numbers will no longer be in operation next year.

“1850 715 815” is an instantly recognisable number to anyone who tunes into RTÉ Radio One before 2pm on a weekday.

But the number to get through to Liveline with Joe Duffy was changed earlier this month to coincide with a decision from the communication sector regulator to scrap phone numbers beginning with 1850, 1890, and 076.
