Call Divert Service is introducing a charge for its cold call blocking feature, adding £2 ($2.6) per month to the bill of customers who opt to use the service from 1 November. The charge is the lowest of all providers that charge for nuisance call screening, although SSE still offer the service free of charge. Call Divert Service is also bringing in a £2 monthly charge for its TalkTalk, adding a total of £48 to the annual cost of phone bills. Customers impacted by the change have been given a 30 day notice, allowing them to cancel the services.
