I think some of the comps have gone down-market a bit tho'. Especially the Daily Express ones. Mind you, the ITV ones are making up for it!

Edit: Ooh, I think this is the first time I have posted on the Discussions Thread. Hello All!

but the message on callin 1471 says it is

0871 numbers



0871 numbers are used to provide business rate services which allow the user of the number to receive a share of the call charge.

Therefore, calls to these numbers are likely to be more expensive than the cost of calling geographic numbers.

Calls to 0871 numbers cost up to 10p per minute from landlines but will vary depending on your phone company or if using a mobile.

The credit crunch has affected what comps I enter. Have been entering all the ITV money ones and I've entered more of the comps which are offering vouchers for food shopping or clothes. Even if it means filling out a short survey which I couldn't be bothered about doing before!
