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.:sus:

This is a problem I can relate to, though with me it's not the delay that's the problem, it's the fact that I actually order for days when people are around. Like Saturday morning. I like living dangerously ;) No one would ever open my parcels though and they don't probe me on what it is too much so it's not too bad.

As for the phone thing, I really can't believe anyone still uses pay as you go. I used to put at least £50 on my phone a month when I didn't have a contract because I couldn't tell my mother who I was talking to so much ;p
 
motherfucker this is a tight one, can see his van but my parents are nearly out the door :sus:
 
Hell yes. Only problem is the phone I got with the contract is knacked. Possibly due to me endlessly sitting/standing on it tho.

I just went sim only. Thought about getting a contract to get an iphone but didn't want to be tied in really.

edit: or to pay a jillion pounds for a phone.
 
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.
 
I meant I'm on a sim only contract. It's rolling so I can cancel it at any time, but I pay the same amount each month for calls, texts and data.

Aye the two years thing is a bitch.. I have an iPhone 4s, £20 a month, unlimited calls and texts and 1gb of data (much, much more than i use)..

Kinda worried the battery will become so shit (it's already pretty fckin shit) that I can't use it.
 
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 (A document which my old phone couldn't handle) (to which I replied about 3) my £5 credit has vanished. So am guessing they are consuming my credit.

That's crazy. I think it's orange that do those.. Dolphin, Raccoon and.. I dunno.. Tapeworm deals..

You 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.

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 abroad
 
Best off getting a secondhand 3G phone for 50 quid, then getting an 'All-in-one' 3 SIM - for 15 quid a month you get 300 minutes, 3000 texts and as much data as you can fuckin' handle.. (I run a mobile broadband dongle in my laptop using one of these SIMS) and the data really is unlimited...
 
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.

Paha, just saw this. Excellent <3

I didnt think recieving texts ever cost money though unless they were from another country? Sounds like a network taking the piss a bit there.

I'm not sure how then. Evey had sent me a document, not realising how out of date my phone was and it came through as 100+ texts... the poor phone has been bleeping for dear life.

Next thing I knew all my credit had disappeared.

I don't know what is going on.



edit; just checked my details online.

14PER TEXT THEY'RE CHARGINE ME. So if I write a long one (more than 160 characters) im paying double that. That's where the credits gone.


Sure I had a text recently from orange saying they'd be 5p each, instead they've gone up
