MattJimF Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 That's if they follow the rules, may see it as an opportunity to sell the info onto other companies for them to spam him. Best bet is first of all see if you are getting charged, if not block the number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moose Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I just have to say "STOP"? The normally claim something along the lines of text"(888"{}{P"STOP"{{}{"888*) to stop getting these texts, so I never do as it's confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I realise that it's not a £30 phone. But compared to the price of buying the phone on contract if this wasn't an upgrade, it's pretty damn cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 It's also a phone. I think that's quite an important point to stress. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 I don't get it. I'm aware that it's a phone. Hence why I said I realise that it's not a £30 phone. But compared to the price of buying the phone on contract if this wasn't an upgrade, it's pretty damn cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroopy121 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 the principal use of the mobile phone has evolved now though. 90% of my phone usage is to play games while I poop.xx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 then get a shitey Nokia thing for a tenner?But I also text, and when I had my iPhone it was good for the web, apps, videos and photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOX Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 But I also text, and when I had my iPhone it was good for the web, apps, videos and photos.Ah, okay. Well, uh, do you still have an iPod? Use that for the media stuff and get a C300 or something for texting. Depends if you like physical keyboards though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanClews Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 See, thats the position I'm in. Maybe I flog my iPhone 4 and get an iPod and a Blackberry. But then its almost like I'm a two-phone Charlie, as I would need to take my ipod to the bog to play games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I'm using a shite phone and an ipod. You think "it's not too much hassle to have them seperate" but it really really is. Pockets are full before you've even picked up your keys. It's just chaos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 At least you have some battery left when you want to send a text tho. Smartphones are gash for battery 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else have you got in there?Sounds like you need a manbag. It's okay though. It's 2012. Nobody thinks they are gay anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
