"1. Our 0844 numbers are guaranteed to give you more income than any other
telecom provider can offer.
2. You will earn from 1 and up to 1.5 pence per minute for every incoming
call you receive during the peak hours (8am-6pm Monday to Friday). We also
pay 1 to 1.5p for every off peak call you receive.
"
I expect your PCT is pocketing the profits for you!
(unless 0845 is different)
Which part of the GMS contract says you have to have an 0845
number?!
