My guide may be usefull @Wa10 but not the solution to the op question from @chrisymon there have been no changes to the system.

 

O2 will not block incomming premium rate etc as they do not know you have not initiated them on a website which is how most of the rogue charges are generated.

@chrisymonI would have thought, as you work for O2, you would know of any such updates?

Just my opinion of course....
