    The things are getting personal. I think I will leave this thread now.

    If the OP didn't have 900+ posts, I'd say he was a troll. He's showing classic symptoms such as:

    (a) using terms such as sneaky and unethical
    (a) ignoring what people are saying
    (b) making things up (e.g. other posters support him, even when they don't)
    (c) trying to argue about something that is so trivial most (i.e. everyone but him) don't see any problem.

    OP - given the standard of your English, is it possible you're not originally from the UK and are basing your (incorrect) assumptions on how mobile operators work in other countries? Before I get flamed, this is not a racist or xenophobic question - I'm just wondering if he's not fully aware of how mobile operators work in the UK.

    Compare his total posts to the number that have been thanked... he's got a pretty poor hit rate suggesting he doesn't tend to bring up helpful or constructive comments...
    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
    - Mark Twain
    Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon: no matter how good you are at chess, its just going to knock over the pieces and strut around like its victorious.
