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

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 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.
