    I might have found the worst offender in the financial services sector. Creation Card Services, which issues a number of affinity cards on behalf of Marriott, Flybe and a number of football clubs, uses premium rate 0871 numbers for customer services. There is no justification for such abuse of such prefixes or for the legislation to exempt the financial services sector from complying.
