Even the Yellow Pages rep said to me that 118 247 is really suited to trades like plumbers, locksmiths, drainage - the emergancy stuff.
At least she was honest.

yellow pages, parish mag's works very well for me, also recommendations, leaflet drops & writting to previous customer cleans has proven to be very effective. 118 118 does'nt tick the right boxes for me, i feel i'd throwing good money away. freshi        ps, joe! used me cfr 400 h/e for the first time today, fantastic little machine, gonna use it for small jobs & upholstery, i'll use the beast "500" exclusively on large jobs. 'nearly put big jobs, but then i'd be setting me self up for a host of dublo entendra's.'

118118 has been the biggest waste of money, I have spent in a long time. Don’t do it.

As most of you know I used to be a scum YP sales rep and they offer the 118 247. All the 118 services are the same and it does'nt work so stay away. Why would anyone pay 50p + to get a CC's number when they have so many other sources (FREE) at their disposal.
