Why is the Public Services Card Helpdesk a 1890 phone number? Most people have mobiles so this call costs them a fortune. For people on pay as you go phones this uses a big chunk of credit. Especially if you have to hold on for an operator.
Very few people have landlines now so why do State offices persist in using these 1890 numbers.
 
To suck more money from the needy in order to help fund unearned / undeserved public service pay increases. Just like the parking charges in public hospitals.

Alternatively use the links posted for elsewhere for http://www.saynoto1890.com to give you these land-line numbers :
  • Public Services Card
    • 1890837000 – Call Instead 071-9672616 or 071-9672571 (or 01-7043281 or 01-7043000 and ask for card helpdesk)
