Ever since BT started charging for DQ, I stopped using it, and found other ways of getting the information. The fact VM is now providing the service for 'free' (actually, at an inclusive rate within your line rental), either means they are attempting to encourage greater call revenues as a result.

I'm not biting, and I doubt many others will either....
