hi there. my DH has lived in Holland. he's on the phone just now, but I will ask him in a min when he is finished and he might be able to link to a website for you.

Try here , oops - it was a link from bt.com. Dunno if all the searches are free though.

118899 is international

Try this - do you understand Dutch? Put in "politie" and the town/area in the green bit. It might just give you your 0800 number again though

this is so hard!
the police just don't seem to be listed.
the thing is that my brother has been missing in amsterdam for nearly 2 years, and we now know that he has a criminal record at the main police station in leidersplein police station
i want to phone them to see if we can get any more details for him, but the number on their website is 0900-- which we cab't use from this country.

My DH has also just been able to find a 0900 number for that station. He has suggested thought that you contact the British Consulate who might be able to give you a number, or contact the police on your behalf. Their contact details are as follows:

Visiting address: Koningslaan 44
Postal address: PO Box 75488, 1070 AL AMSTERDAM
Telephone: +31 (0)20 676 4343

HTH and Good luck

my mum is soo upset that he may be a down and out, but i am relieved he still alive
thanks for help so far- the power of mumsnet !
