    It's not the top 10 though (at least I couldn't see 10). It's the top one - being charged extra by not paying for something by DD. It's a bit of a disappointing article :(

    I wondered about that too, but if you hover over the pic in the article arrows appear at the sides & you can access the rest of the top ten :)
