You can start with the producer on Bsxtra!

First appearance on freeview in 2 weeks and what do they do?

50min girl caller

^^^Agree! Paige's performance has been brilliant all night but BS seem to have ruined her return by plaguing her with "Girl-Caller" all through her solo stints

Her first stint on BS Blue at 9pm was great-no girl caller scams but thats not much use I admit if you are Freeview only. I guess that girl callers must encourage loads of 'listen only' callers otherwise the mob at BS would not do it. They certainly would not do it if there was little profit in it. In other words it's those too 'shy' to actually talk to the girl that are to blame

Yeah, you can laugh, but 50mins solid at the start of her first (65min) freeview appearance in two weeks - come on!

I wasn't laughing at the expense of freeview callers one bit. I was laughing at the irony that those who just want to listen inadvertantly ruin it for those who call. Obviously it's BS who are to blame as they are the ones exploiting the situation by putting girl callers on...but that is what is bringing in the money at the moment.

Great to see Paige back last night,just wish she was allowed on B/S1,which seems to be the best channel content wise out of the three,and less girl callers,can not wait till the next time she is on,any body know when this is,thanks

Don't really pretend to understand the girl caller problem, although I can see it would be irritating if genuine callers were being blocked by fake calls or over-extended ones just to boast listening numbers. On the other hand, and I don't know if this is just my fevered imagination (and let's face it whose isn't when it comes to Paige), but it does seem that Paige has got more animated and/or removed more clothing when she gets these calls, in the past at least. So maybe there's a silver lining after all ...

It's not just that no genuine callers can get through during an extended fake girl call, it costs us alot of money. The girl callers are queue-jumped in on the producers whim. If you've been queueing for, say, 10mins and you hear a girl-caller put through then you have absolutely no chance of speaking to the girl and the £17 you've already spent has been completely wasted i.e. you've been ripped off.

And without trying to sound provocative you have to remember it's us guys who make the calls or use any of the other pay services that keeps the shows going. None of these channels would be in business without us as they certainly don't make any money from those who just watch.
That is what annoys me with BS; they simply do not listen to their paying customers or at worst treat them with utter contempt. They should have the decency to allow those already queueing to get through to the girl they wish to chat with. Especially when it's Paige.
