I don't think these international calls are covered by the TPS. There was an article in the other weeks Sunday Times, apparently BT said they aren't able to stop them & it's nothing to do with them- even though they get a fee for every call put through.
My neice recently took a call, thought she'd won a prize and pressed a digit as instructed, and was billed for a call for over £40. She's 7, my brother wasn't too happy!
