    The man in the article might be making 5 pence a minute, or at the most 7, definitely not 10.

    I have been very open with the fact I make 7p a min on my 0871 number.

    You can get higher rates if you pay more for the number etc, but considering they said it cost £14 to set up...

    I did not pay £14 for my number. No idea how you got that amount?

    Thanks - that reminded me to do the same and I then found that, not only did the Flextel system give me a free 0871 number, but it allowed me to divert my old (Flextel) 070 number to it too!

    Hello Heinz,I still use the 084 number we used years ago. :) OK I don't make money but it does stop spam calls.

    It had no link, It was not to long and I have no idea why.
