SAYNOTO0870.COM Blog
Feb 8th, 2010 at 12:24am
 
There's now a SAYNOTO0870.COM Blog whose inaugural posting covers the reasons that the Department for Work and Pensions should move from 0845 to 03 numbers. At the bottom there is a link to download the full 3-page briefing document.

Let me know your thoughts; I don't all posts to be so long!

Dave, I think this is a great idea, it is something to which we can refer people/organisations when we are engaged in trying to persuade people that ngns are a bad idea.   I have suggested a few times that it would be a good idea to have some kind of document(s) which would summarise the arguments in respect of the various 084X & 087X numbers and which site users could use to ensure that what is said to those who expect us to call ngns is accurate and consistent - is there any chance of expanding this?  I for one would really appreciate it and it would save people like you a fair amount of time as you wouldn't need to keep responding to individuals like me asking you for guidance!

This is brilliant Dave.   It is very easy to read and understand.

I am sure other members would like to join me in thanking you for all the hard work you put into this. Smiley

Well done Dave - this is a great idea.

As others have suggested, it should provide a place for briefing material on all manner of subjects. It could also be an alternative way of holding "static" forum postings, such as the Halls of Fame / Shame.

It is especially useful that full drafted (pdf) documents for reference can be available alongside the actual blog postings.

If it is to represent saynoto0870.com, other members may wish to submit draft articles for possible publication there (under your editorship).

Do you want to invite contributions, or perhaps suggestions for what you should write?

I'd say a standard layout and menu options across the whole website would be beneficial to most users.

I think this is a top priority. Perhaps we can continue this discussion about site improvements on the How Can We Improve SayNoTo0870 - Part2 thread.

Who is responsible for cost of a telephone call?

I've blogged about how, using some simple logical thinking, it can be seen as a load of twaddle that 0845 calls are ever local rate:

Who is responsible for setting the cost of a telephone call?

What are local call rates & how have they changed?
Reply #10 - May 26th, 2011 at 8:26pm
 
There continues to be references to local rate and the nonsense about 0845 rates being connected with it continues too. I've made a posting on this:

What are local call rates and how have they changed over the years?
