Our phone box in Scalby was featured as part of a BBC Breakfast piece in December 2016 investigating the removal of phone boxes all over North Yorkshire. To learn more about Scalby Phone Box, go to our website: www.cavca.org....

Yes I’m the person just doing that! The cashless BT phone boxes are now free to use to call UK landlines and UK mobiles, I’m also on BT’s back to keep all of them in decent working order, if you have any issues with a particular phone box, let me know the location and number and I will have it sorted. 65,000 calls are made through them each day totalling 4 million minutes each year, so they are still used, also many of them contain small cells used to boost mobile coverage. Calls to 0800 and 0808 numbers are free to call but they earn BT a whopping 70p per minute which goes to the upkeep and can prevent removal of them, so if you need to call a freephone number use the BT phone box!
