[Regulator Phone Pay] says Premium rate numbers are not designed to be used in this way
Yes they totally are. The whole point of them is to make money from callers. Exactly what else were they designed for?
- lgeorget 8y agoThis is answered in the article it seems. Those numbers are associated with obligations of fairness, liability, etc. which an individual is unlikely to be able to provide the callers with.
- kwhitefoot 8y agoSurely all he has to do is point out to whoever he gives the number what it will cost them. What more could be needed? And as someone else pointed out, in the UK at least, these numbers all have the 0871 prefix.
- joosters 8y agoRubbish! Why do you believe that an individual can’t be fair yet an organisation can? Premium rate numbers are used by some of the most scammy businesses out there, the regulators don’t seem to mind taking their money.
