non-geographic telephone services
Explanation:
Telephone numbers that do not include a prefix.

This is how "resttrafik" is explained by the Swedish Post- och Telestyrelsen (http://www.pts.se/upload/Documents/SE/Konkurrenssituationen_... p.19)
resttrafik ... Trafikslag som inte omfattas av förval, exempelvis betalsamtal.

Telephone services lacking prefix are generally referred to as non-geographic in English, and these will include premium rate numbers as well as various types of free calls.
