Sky is also following TalkTalk. Are they going to stop access to 18185 etc? Everybody is forcing customers to take their unlimited package.

Fair comment, but that is one reason why I have never left BT.        :)

They are legally compelled to allow indirect access providers !        ;)

Talk Talk already block 18185 indirect access, as will Sky from 1/6/2010

Workaround use 18185  0808 freephone access number, but calls are dearer then 18185 proper.

Nobody is actually forcing customers to take unlimited call bundles, other bundles are still available.

what about the off peak time change? I dont think anybody will make  calls at 7 am in the morning and most of the people will be at home by 6pm. So I think they are forcing customers to take unlimited call package.
