Agreed, this is what we have been discussing in the 0870 threads.
Transparency is needed, OFCOM are 'deliberating' at present (I think!!?), and are about to start a new 'naming' procedure so that Local/National become Low and Midi - so that the same 'scam' can continue to be perpetrated on us (just under different names!!).
How can ppl be expected to follow the pricing/naming of this shambles.
OFCOM have behaved reprehensibly in this matter - as you say MPs are maybe our best bet.
