Do You Vote in TV Phone Polls?

[Mello]

I never do, but I assume lots do, as they must be making mega money by keep having them (X Factor, I'm a Celeb etc.). I don't mean phone in competitions (like the Gadget Show), but just 'votes'?

I'm just curious...

[sleep envy]

I don't even vote in PH polls

[Glassman]

No

[SFMXKR]

no and I didn't vote on this either......

[Vipers]

And what irritates me, is the line "The lines are closed, but you may still be charged if you vote", WTF, with all this technology, is it too much to either put an answer machine on, saying LINES ARE CLOSED, or just switch off the incomming lines.

I am sure folk still phone in, likes of X factor, and get charged for it? The networks are still raking it me thinks.

No never

From the poll so far, I conclude we PH's are above average intelligence in this country.

I agree, but some of them do watch GMTV

[Morningside]

No! Why would anyone? The programme is hardly going to end just because noone has voted is it?
Anyhow, they do it by percentages now where as before it was the actual number of votes. I suppose I can draw the fact that more and more people are NOT voting.

I also dont bother with quizzes like:

Who is the Prime Minister?

Erm... not sure I know the answer to that.

Interesting results though. You wonder why they persist (although I guess the PH massive are above this kind of vacuous activity )
