I hope, Lyn, that you refer to the 'Do not call' list, and not the idea of telemarketing at your own expense! I am on Vodafone prepay, and no calls come in that cost me. Also, all callers that are on my mobile's phone book appear with caller ID. I don't normally answer calls from unknown sources. I am reasonably sure, though by no means certain, that the 'called number pays' scheme is non-existent in this country. It was not a feature on my first mobile either, which was NZ Telecom network. I just can't imagine it ever being allowed in this country, somehow! There surely must be some advantage, costwise, having a phone that does provide this 'called phone pays' feature. Thanks for your input, DSW, that should settle a few minds!
