118118 call costs

[RobM]

Ever use 118118? You might like to think again; "Calls to 118 118 cost £4.49 per call plus £4.49 per minute (a minimum 60 second charge applies) including VAT (tariff code SC087) plus the Access Charge set by the caller's landline or mobile phone provider.". They even charge that after they put you through!:thumbdown:

I've never used a 118 service. I don't have a clue what benefit they add.

Indeed so, but some people are not computer-savvy - the old boy 2 doors up from me who has learning difficulties would find a computer way out of his depth.

How much?!!?

Wow that is criminal.

You are better off phoning Babestation and asking one of them to look up the number for you.

Whatever Babestation is.

Is it something to do with talking pigs?
