This service based in the Isle Of Man was set up briefly for experimental purposes.
At its height, it had 5 access numbers: two on 07624 numbers, and three on 07924 ones.
At its beginning, the destinations covered were the ones specified for the 10p 0871 number
here, PLUS India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
After discussions with members of the niftylist forum ( as it was then called ), various extra destinations were requested, and Mikael gave us his response as follows:-
