They rang me about AOL talk, their phone system for the UK. I explained I was moving but would look at details if they sent them. Mistake!!
They signed me up. One expensive phone call already to cancel. Every time I log in there is a "confirmation notice" You try and click on "not interested" and up comes error code 5 with an invitation to ring another expensive number as their systems are down.
