Oh, Double oh, and treble zero. Not sure why but treble zero rolls off the tongue better I think. There are instances where I use zero though like the egg one above.

I guess double oh has ingrained in everyones brain due to bond otherwise I would more than likely use double zero.

“Oh” is a letter and bad habit to get into. Fine if a telephone number where it is clear you actually mean a digit but elsewhere you’re potentially going to cause mistakes.
