At risk of ridicule...

Dircon (the Direct Connection to you) is now on 0345 numbers, giving 
local call *charge* access in the UK. Now, of course, the reason I use
Dircon is because they give me a UUCP feed, and because they give me a
UUCP feed and I run my own NNTPD here, I haven't a clue how good their
news server is; but my experience of Dircon's technical support is that
it is unfailingly excellent.

You could do a very great deal worse than talk to them. They're on
sales@dircon.co.uk.
