Hi,
Since Spantel changed its prefix from 1030 to 10787 / 107069, I wanted to find out if their rates had changed and I stumbled upon this post.
I remembered I had a strange charge, so I checked the bills since 2012.
I found numerous duplicate charges. The first one is on the bill from June 2012, the last ones on the bill from February 2013.
Spantel never refunded me for the extra charges, so I will now do my homework myself and ask them for a refund.
Since I am with the OCU, a Spanish consumers' rights group, I will inform them and hope they will make this public and maybe press charges.
Regards,
Wim
Tip for finding duplicate charges: those calls have exactly the same start time and duration, and the date is about 30 days later, p.e.:
