Many thanks to those who e-mailed us suggestions on how to structure the site, and also to all those who sent in number suggestions.

I received this comment from James in the last few days. This is something new to me as I’m not a regular user of Skype. Can anyone else shed any further light on this issue?

The item on the “say no to” phone # issue impacts on me in a way not identified in your text.

In June 07 I was able to get “broadband” and signed up with Skype/voip. Since then any time that I try to phone a 1800,1850 or1890 # using voip a screen message advises that the # is *”invalid”*, eg 1850753753. This is an Eircom customer support #, listed on the inside cover of phone book.

I do not encounter a similar problem when phoning 0845 etc #s in the UK when using voip.

Eircom are able and surprisingly permitted to put filter blocks on any #s they wish.

This is just another example of having enfeebeled and not fit for purpose ministers.
