  1. Justin,

    Overall, this is is a good summary and shows you understood the main ideas. Your key words do not all clearly support this summary however, and you do not mention who is behind the "put-pocketing" - the Talk Talk company (an important point!). Your sentences show a good understanding of the unknown vocabulary.
