bbb-uk I posted on that page after your post on here re your post not being there, so maybe they are not using yours, mine was on the site within 10 minutes.
Obviously they're are specifically choosing which posts to accept and which not to.
I did originally try with my forum name and yesterday I re-submitted it with my actual name but again to no avail. I tried this morning and removed the e-petition paragraph because it had an webaddress in it thinking that they didn't like webaddresses in posts. During my three attempts, I used a valid webmail address and I have checked this and not received a thing from them (not even in my junk mail folder).
Below is the last thing that I sent them:
Quote:Some schools are also using numbers beginning 0844 now as well.
VirginMedia (NTL:Telewest) now charge upto max 10p/min for 0870 and upto max 5p/min for 0845 calls. This makes them the MOST expensive landline provider for these calls.
Rates from mobiles can vary a lot. The article states 15p/min from Vodafone but for some tariffs it can be as high as 35p/min.
T-mobile charge upto 40p/min for calls to 08x numbers.
In most cases your telephone provider tries to hide the cost of these calls as well - eg BT - which is contrary to Ofcom regulation.
Most Government authorities and some Police forces have started using 08x numbers and may also receive a "rebate" as well (eg Derbyshire receive a "rebate" of somekind). The DVLA/VOSA makes money from the calls.
Big companies like Sky, CPW/TalkTalk, BT, BA, Argos use these higher-priced numbers to earn revenue.
Nothing I mentioned was a lie at all.
