I don't think that they will be revoking the existing PNS number, they
say that they will not be issuing any more 070 ranges to operators from
the end of 2007.
After that, PNS call with charges greater than a threshold (to be
defined, maybe 20ppm), will have to have a charge-announcement.
I do not think they are saying that you'll have to surrender your
current 070 number (or that it will be removed by them).
Of course, the PNS number is not really /yours/, but belongs to the
range holder (as assigned by Ofcom).
