bt phone books dumped!!!!!

The other morning hundreds of phone books have appeared on the estate where I live. They are in the plastic wrappers in bundles, they are dumped by bin areas and randomly around the estate. They are not phone books for this area, they are for a another area, thats about 20-30 miles away.
I assume that someone was meant to deliver these and hasn't bothered and dumped them here...has anyone ever delivered the phone books? i wondered if they had been paid alot to do this job? (curiosity reason, i'm a nosey sod) :rotfl:

anyway the phone book complaints only work mon-fri, so its going to have to wait to complain to them :rolleyes:
I am hoping bt will arrange for these to be collected and disposed of-there is no way our bin men will take them, they have a hard enough job actually taking our normal rubbish it seems :rolleyes:

    I suspect you are right and that someone has taken the payment for delivery then dumped the whole lot.
