That would piss me off massively. If I had to phone my ISP every time I wanted to host a game...

Which is why most sensible ISPs give you some way of doing it yourself. Even if it rarely works properly (I'm looking at you, BT).

Hmm, BT don't block shit do they (other than bad stuff). I just forward stuff on my router and it works (I'm on BT, like).

If it's not being explicitly forwarded to your PC, then it's almost definitely blocked by default at your router. Otherwise it would be an open route into your network.
I doubt BT universally block anything inside their network before it gets to your router.

Internet access at uni is rubbish. I'm being limited by the speed of the 54MB wifi connection
:(

Not totally uncommon in business, to be fair.
