118118 - The Directory Service
As some may have seen 118118 did a nice big spread in the Metro recently advertising their "Ask Anything" service. So I have decided to put them to the test.

I sent in my question on the 3rd June 2008 @ 21:41 and I am yet to receive a response. They do state that if no reply given within 10minutes then the answer is free. So I believe with my rough calculation it should be. I won't say what I have asked, but I feel it is a very valid question.

- As an update. I have now received a text at 10:29 with the answer to my question.

Q: Why does an American Express card only have 15 numbers?
A: American Express Card only have 15 numbers because that is recognition given to them by the International Board American Express

- So there we go.

Credit to 118118 I do think there may have been a problem somewhere along the line, that answer was received after asking the question again via the website. Maybe they didn't get my text.
