    The regulator of premium rate numbers, Pat Breen (?) will be doing a follow up feature on the Irish Psychics Live scandal on Thurdsay mornings programme 10-12 RTE Radio 1.

    It might be a good idea to have your 'waffle' filter switched on.

    Mike.

    Some time ago the owner of said phone line did a great publicity stunt.

    He was done in court for SMSing X thousand of people which he claimed he did believing he was within the bounds of the law. 1000 quid fine, his face on the 6:01 news and me talking about it now...perfect. Not to mention the cash his little SMS sending earned him. He's the guy in the ad in the space suit afaik

    Sounds exactly like the way phone sex lines work - little difference really, same service, different vice.

    That Higgins guy is a prick of the highest order.

    Indeedy he is.

    If I was on a phone sex line I'd be a bit embarassed to do it in an office.
