Upon querying this with VM I discovered that a few times I'd checked my phone for calls using the 1471 option and then pressed 3 to return the call. I couldn't believe what I was told - I had been charged for the connection and irrespective of what (cost saving) package I was on it made no difference - WHAT!!
What really galled me was that the VM rep was not prepared to refund me for something I was totally unaware of. This is the kind of lowlife stunt that I would expect (rip off) BT to pull not VM -
Not impressed and very disappointing!

All phone companies apart from Vodafone and O2's 1471 charge for returning the call.
Virgin Media and BT do tell you that there is a charge before using the service as it says 'Just so you know, there maybe a charge for returning a call' and BT's one says something like 'there is normally a charge for the service'
