Yes. Everything was fine last week. Today, nothing works. Don't know why.

You may have a bar on your phone stopping you from ringing premium rate lines. You should be able to get it lifted if you get in contact with your service provider.

Checked that and there was nothing in place. As I said, all was working fine last week. Incidentally, I was told that the 5 digit mobile numbers don't count as premium numbers even though they can cost up to £2 a minute!

I've always tried to use my pay as you go mobile to call the shows, but their have been odd occasions a few years back where I used the landline.

Pay as you go is obviously better because you can then only spend what you have topped up on the phone, and have no bills to pay.

I've not had a contract, because the temptation would always be there, and I'd be spending a fortune, which I just cannot afford. So to eliminate temptation, I don't buy into it to start with.
