Hundreds who complained about been ripped off by the Crazy Frog ringtone are entitled to a refund an official watchdog has ruled.

BBC Article

The premium rate services regulator, Icstis, said the Crazy Frog ads did not clearly explain the costs involved.It fined service provider mBlox £40,000 ($70'400) and ordered it to refund the 338 people who complained to the watchdog.Others who ran up huge bills by signing up to the subscription service but did not make a complaint are not eligible.

It would of been more appropriate to order the Skinning of the crazy Frog.
