Unfortunately dialers mainly have this bad rap here in the US. There are other countries in Europe that prefer this method of billing. Although there still are a few idiots who ruin it for everyone else, for the most part from what I've seen since I started really focusing on global traffic is that there are a LOT of really honest dialer companies.
The things they are doing today in Europe with web call (broadband dialers), Premium SMS services, etc. are really exciting. I can't wait until this alternative solutions become more available and popular here in the US.
Good info Toolz! I think US webmasters need to become more aware of these alternative payment solutions. As I always say... the more options - the better!
