I just tried to go “ex–directory” for the new mobile phone number directory service.
They say that they wont give my mobile number to any Tom, Dick or Harry that pays them a £1. And, despite not wanting to perpetuate the intarwebz hysteria about this service, I reckon there‘s probably no smoke without fire.
Is it coincidental that when there is some hysteria about this service that they take down the removal service for “essential maintenance”?
