Tesco shutting down it's VoIP services..
If you are a customer you'll probably already know this..

Tesco have given 30 days notice that they are terminating their VoIP services. They are offering refunds for any outstanding credit, and for any handsets bought since December 2009.

Tesco said in a statement that "trends in technology have moved forward since we launched internet phone so that this is no longer a sustainable service". This appears to mean that the supermarket is busy expanding its mobile network and doesn't want to confuse customers with too many products which won't appeal to the majority.
Nope.
It just means there's no fast/easy/big money in it.

Tesco indiscriminately jump on every bandwagon in town.
If they don't strike gold, then that little venture fizzles out, and on to the next one.
You could call it a formula?!

Probably a good time to tout this then:
