    your asking them to provide a service, so.they can charge you for that service.

    Yeah , they have to put a barring order on your account and make up for the fact that they are loosing money from you calling mobiles. They also charge you for your mailbox and for the privilage of just having a working phone line ,

    @ sin city, something has to keep the lines operational, im pretty sure that it isnt free for eircom to run these lines, electric bill must absolutely colossal not forgetting the maintenance guys that keep the lines going and fix them when in need of repair, they have to be paid also
