MoreThan phone call policies

My satnav talks to me, i don't have to look at a screen ?

Ha Meer, a fairly sarcastic response. I take it you never look at the screen, ever. If you do not accept that a satnav is distracting, you are lying to yourself.

I don't need to look at the screen, the satnav gives verbal instructions. It's more distracting looking for street names and junctions yourself.

What i find annoying is when i call people on their mobile and they answer whilst driving, then proceed to tell me that it's not convenient to speak as they're driving. Why do they answer then ?

Anyway, back on topic, if More Than have a policy of not speaking to customers who are driving (whether on hands free or not) then thats their policy. Can't see a problem really.

Then in that case what about when passengers are navigating? If it was really that much of a risk maps would have been made illegal ages ago!

What can you do while driving?

I'm not surprised. If you're holding an apple (or a Red Bull), you're not fully in control of the car. What if you have to avoid an obstruction?
