Sources Confirm Affinity vISP Message
Posted: 29th May, 2003 By: MarkJ
Sources close to Affinity and related groups have confirmed that a message, sent regarding new dialup software from 'Vital Registration', to customers of several UK ISPs, including Breathe and SurfAnyTime (SAT), are indeed genuine.
Our source suggest that the "software 'should' interface with the backend servers, determine which vISP the customer is with and which package and assign the relevant dialup number.
If it can't find the customer for whatever reason, it allocates an 0845 number."
No doubt that last bit will have a few people concerned, although hopefully it wont suddenly start connecting unmetered users to an 0845 line.
