You're right though - its sooo old. It was even reported on local radio around here last week so shows how little research these "reporters" do!!

Can you easily tell the prefix of premium rate numbers these days you know like 0890..0891 etc or has it all changed? The cynic in me reckons BT are in cohorts with these douche bag telephone scammers. Yes they get a hefty commission from these premium rate lines
