Dear despised Customer
Thank you for your awkward question. We value our profits highly and we will be avoiding your question as answering it might damage our dividend.
If we can ignore any other questions you might stupidly wish to ask us, please do get in touch.
Kind regards etc. etc.
Ya know, as daft as it sounds, I would have a lot more respect if that was the letter that was sent out by VM as at least it would be honest. This constant spinning by Phorm, BT, VM etc is just tiring. The whole description of this as a "service" is laughable in the extreme. It provides no benefits whatsoever for end-users. Its highly debatable about the issue of content providers too imho.

On another matter though I would like to thank Simon for his continued engagement with us on these boards. I have been highly critical of Simon at various points since finding out all about Phorm and their plans. Although I would prefer he not to be working with Phorm it is better that someone with his background and proven track record work from the inside rather than some new start-up with absolutely no track record and no ethics.
