Guest davy Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 These apps have just made me £24 poorer. Ah well, looks like repligo will just have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but the £24 should get us more stuff in the long run ;) Just got to wait for Paul to sort out all the other deals.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rob.P Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 Paul, if I sent the money on the 30th via Paypal, will that qualify? Gotta wait for Payday to replenish the gold nugget supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest James Posted April 26, 2003 Report Share Posted April 26, 2003 woo! thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nickcornaglia Posted April 26, 2003 Report Share Posted April 26, 2003 This message is related but not at the same time, so I apologize in advance. If it carries on...it may need to be moved. I certainly give thanks for the extra perk...but this raises a question for me. Are SMS messages at a premium in the UK and Europe? Under T-Mobile...For US$2.99/month I receive 500 sms messages. I also subscribe to a calling plan with free national long distance and 5000 anytime minutes for US$99.00 that includes 300 sms messages. My GPRS package is US$19.99/month for 10MB of data that also includes an additional 50 sms messages. Thats a total of 850 sms messages/month most of which are used for automatic email notification and news/weather alerts. Is that alot to you guys??? Text messaging is not as popular here as I would like it to be, I probably only send/receive 20 personal sms messages per month although I am slowly succeeding in getting others to use it.

Guest Brody Posted April 26, 2003 Report Share Posted April 26, 2003 Yes thats a lot!! I send about 70 texts a month at 10 pence a text message!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Under T-Mobile...For US$2.99/month I receive 500 sms messages. :shock: $2.88 that's £1.88 overe here so If I did 500 SMS normaly it would cost £50 or $79.58 :shock: you are one lucky guy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nickcornaglia Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 WOW! Seems backwards since text messaging is more popular there than here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Could be the reason? cheap for you until it takes off then slowly creeping up? But the $99 deal you have, I'd almost comsider getting rid of my landline for that 5000 anytime minutes and free national calls. you have really got it lucky.

Guest nickcornaglia Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 I have a cable modem so I don't really need the landline anymore, except my T-Mobile phone gets poor reception in my home, otherwise I would get rid of the landline.

Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 In europe we only pay to SEND messages, not receive! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Although apparently theres a deliberate built in bug in the network system that allows anyone with the right kit to charge whatever they want for someone to recieve their messages, and theres nothing much the providers can do about it...

Guest nickcornaglia Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 I know at least under T-Mobile....you pay both ways. Overage costs 10 cents per message. I really like it and would like to start using it more. I just have to get my friends & family on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ajb3000 Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 don't you have to pay to recieve calls over there aswell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nickcornaglia Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Yes....when you receive calls you pay AIRTIME charges. But no longdistance charges. With the plan I'm on, I have national longdistance, but If I only had regional I would have to pay longdistance and airtime on outgoing calls and airtime only for incoming calls.
