Poll: Do you vote on TV shows when it costs you money?

Just a simple Yes No poll to see how many of us actually dial up and vote for TV shows when it costs money?

How much does it usually cost to vote on TV shows?

I only watch one TV program in which your asked to participate by a phone vote, but have never or will ever vote by telephone. to answer Neil from what I've seen its usually about 25p, except where you enter these TV comps, you know the ones with the really difficult answers like what colour is a banana a, red. b, green. c yellow. they cost an arm and a leg usually over a quid and a hell of a sight more from a mobile

Once, to support Diana Vickers, when she was in the semi-final of X-Factor.

Secondly for Diversity in Britain's Got Talent, because I was gobsmacked at what dance group Diversity did, and I also thought Su-Bo shouldn't win.

It would be interesting to know how much money they make-probably pays for the show.
Definate no,even if free.

Re: Poll: Do you vote on TV shows when it costs you money?

I happily spent my fifty pence on my two votes.

I thought I'd earned the right to blow the cash, after never having bought a raffle ticket in my life, or wasted money on other gambling methods.

No from me whether it costs or not....I think they're all "fixed" anyway.
