Why do we pay for these ****ty regulators?

What are Premium rate numbers?

Premium rate services offer some form of information or entertainment that is charged to your phone bill. Alternatively they may be used to scam you out of your hard earned money!*

Quote:

This is what we know about the number you entered (07094606107).

ICSTIS does not regulate this type of number. However we can tell you the following.

* This is classified as being used for Personal Numbering.
* It is provided by Pipemedia Ltd.

Cretins, a premium rate regulator that doesn't regulate premium rate numbers!


*last sentence my addition.
