    o2 Number chop

    Just noticed this on the o2 website....

    Removal of 070 numbers

    Please be aware that from 17 August, you will no longer be able to dial the 070* ranges below from the O2 network. These ranges have a number of services associated with them including illegitimate premium rate lines which seek to exploit and unfairly charge customers.

    In order to combat this, we have had no choice but to remove them from the network, and you will now hear an unobtainable tone if you try to ring them. O2 UK apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause you.

    The number ranges effected are:

    070968
    070408
    070084
    070798
    070150
    070417
    070695
    070896
    070802
    070690
    070492
    070702
    Wonder if its going to effect any legit people?
    Surely them cutting numbers available cant be part of the contract? lol

    Reckon I could get out of my contract because of them doing this? I'm fed up with O2 but have 8 months left.

    Can only be a good thing if you ask me. Good to see O2 doing something about this "You have won a holiday to Disneyland, call to claim!" crap.
