Yes bigjohn,

We had noticed, and we have also noticed that although some considerable while ago the CA announced that they were commencing a campaign against the revenue-sharing NGN scam, they suddenly went quiet and did nothing more, after having received a large number of submissions from angry consumers and collecting a considerable amount of evidence.

It seems they decided it was better (for their funding) to join the exploiters and snuff their campaign against it!

Ofcom are completely ineffectual

At this rate all companies/gov departments, etc will be using 0845 & 0870 (0870 being the most common). It'll just be when ringing normal house phones will we be using a geographical number!

YAWN !!!!

Whinge, whinge, whinge !! I get so bored with people that rehash the same old MOANS & GROANS !!

This particular one, amongst others, has been done to death a few times now and the same comment applies.

Agreed they have an 0845 but they ALSO show their Geo number in prominent places on the website and publications.

Try looking at the previous threads before going on about something as if you're the first one to notice & bring it to everyones attention!

YOU WEREN'T !

It stops hurting when I stop banging it against the wall !!
