STOP BENEFIT CLAIMANTS PAYING PREMIUM RATE NUMBERS

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask for a ban on the Government using premium rate phone numbers for services for people on benefits.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
