Agreed. The dialer biz was full of scammers (auto dialers, non-disclosure, etc). However with the tougher requirements in the UK as well as other countries most of that is being cleaned up. Meaning scammers are getting fucked, unfortunatly so are their affiliates and resellers.
Those who dont comply will fall by the way side and imho that's a good thing.
Dialers have always been regarded as shady however the cream rises to the top and it still is a good alternative for those sufers without a CC as long as its above the board.
