This just in from PhonepayPlus: PHONEbrain the website specifically developed by PhonepayPlus to educate children, parents and teachers about phone-paid services, is celebrating its first birthday.
Apparently, since its launch a year ago, they have clocked up over 100,000 distinct website visits and visited schools across the country as part of its educational roadshow.
PHONEbrain is aimed at teaching young people how to recognise and access phone-paid services, appreciate the costs involved and pre-empt potential problems. I’ve posted a link to this site before but with new and interactive initiatives planned for the New Year it’ll be worth keeping a close eye on. Gary
