A common thing in continental Europe too. NOYB and some EU lawmakers are trying to make these pay-or-ok schemes illegal, but I guess in the UK you will be out of luck regarding that.

That’s doubtful - you have examples? Because if the service is based in the EU I’ll send those to the appropriate agency today.

In Spain too, try marca.com, abc.es or el pais.es.
