fucking hell, hate when vendors offer next day delivery and then take several days. They don't take into account that some people time the deliveries so that suspicious housemates/ family members don't see strange packages coming through your letterbox. Seriously, gave myself a pretty good margin with this order and I'm still playing cat and mouse hoping my bloody parents leave before the postie arrives D : it could all be timed fine or it could end up terribly, I hate the gamble.![]()
Of course!![]()
Tesco mobile is pure cheapness and good coverage because they piggy back on the O2 network.
Hell yes. Only problem is the phone I got with the contract is knacked. Possibly due to me endlessly sitting/standing on it tho.
Iphones are shit, I wouldn't bother. Contracts are much better though, never had any kind of problem with mine and it's all just so much easier than topping up all the time if you use your phone a lot like I do. My contract is er... £35 a month, I got a free Samsung Galaxy S2 (when it was new) and I get unlimted everything. Only thing I don't like is having to wait 2 years for an upgrade but I could always buy a phone in between if I wanted.
What network are you with? Pretty much all networks offer you a deal like pay £x from your topup for x amount of free texts / minutes / a mix..
A lot of them also offer x amount of free texts when you top up by a certain amount.
Never heard of anyone being text for receiving? Have you got the verification thing on (where you get a text to say your text was received)?
Orange. I've never heard of being charged per text received either, but have a very brief memory of reading it in some T&C's, and suspiciously, after Evey's 100 texts yesterday (to which I replied about 3) my £5 credit has vanished. So am guessing they are consuming my credit.

I just looked at a pdf of Orange charges and that agrees with you. It says you are not charged to receive standard text messages at home or abroadYou don't ever pay to receive a text, this means when you are in your networks country or abroad, unless you signed up for some subscription service.
So you're actually paying to be abused (via SMS) by Evey?
If you're into that kinda thing, drop me a PM and I'll hook you up with some cheaper sources.
