Guest Craig Luke Posted July 26, 2003 Report Posted July 26, 2003 Hi Asif, May I suggest that before you start moving along with new business ventures, you clear up what remains of old ones. Please contact me as soon as possible, as we have a few issues to discuss before legal action is taken. Best regards, Craig.
Guest asif @ planus Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 Amo, those look fine. If you're sure that DIXONS is the store from which you would like to purchase the XBOX from - Personally I would have suggested John Lewis - they will match other stores' prices, and give a 2 Year guarantee if you buy it in a store (I believe - I know thats with Computers, not sure about consoles). Delay: Apologies for the delay, I got called away on Friday night, and I just returned about an hour ago. It seems that the Rackspace customer control centre is broken at the moment, so I need to get access to that first. I would hope it is fixed within the hour. Craig & Ben: Mail en route. Regards Asif
Guest amo Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 Never heard of john lewis - prefer to go for the more established firms IO can actually walk into just in case (no john lewis shops in my town, or is it an ecompany only? :? ). Checked and john lewis dont offer 2 year on xbox anyway. Payment methods asif? Cheque, back transfer, Paypal??

Checked and john lewis dont offer 2 year on xbox anyway. Payment methods asif? Cheque, back transfer, Paypal?? amo, John Lewis is one of the oldest department stores in the UK :) Their moto is "never knowingly under sold" which means they will match another stores price etc. ... Despite the fact that it had been part of the John Lewis Partnership since 1934, it was not until 2000 that Tyrrell & Green changed its name to John Lewis
Guest asif @ planus Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 Really? You dont have a John Lewis anywhere near you?!?! Wow. All of their online sales only get one year, however, if you go into one of their stores, all of their home appliances have two years. No worry, its up to you. Which method would you prefer? Regards Asif
Guest amo Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 Sorry, i live in a small hill billy shanty town where we have to walk four miles to get to the local well fer drinkin water etc etc... :) Anyway, paypal is best for me asif - make payment to my paypal account: [email protected]
Guest mcwarre Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 After my experiences with Planus (low availability, no answers to e-mails/PMs) I do not hold out much hope for the short / medium / long term availabilty of this service. :cry: :cry: A shame really as I was keen to use it and would willingly pay. However 5p & GPRS (albeit small) charge for a service which may be unreliable looks less and less attractive when compared to O's relatively dear 10p for a stable, reliable service. Apologies Asif, I hope you prove me wrong. Time will tell. :wink:
Guest ubergeek Posted July 27, 2003 Report Posted July 27, 2003 Time will tell. :wink: Indeed... :roll:
Guest FrankyG Posted July 28, 2003 Report Posted July 28, 2003 Just validated my account. Not used yet as credits still to be transferred. Asif-any news on the new SPV app? (and can we still change the 'sender ID' :twisted:)
Guest asif @ planus Posted July 28, 2003 Report Posted July 28, 2003 Hi, heh, the service sort of "launched itself" as the DNS went through when it wasn't supposed to -but not to worry. I will be constantly updating the service today with needed things (such as character counters, help files, etc). FrankyG, do you like the new features? i.e. Pre-Defined messages, address book, sent messages, etc? Thanks Asif
Guest FrankyG Posted July 28, 2003 Report Posted July 28, 2003 FrankyG, do you like the new features? i.e. Pre-Defined messages, address book, sent messages, etc?Asif Hi, well...I'll let you know when I actually get to using it! However, I can tell you now what would be useful; 1. Ability to import Outlook contacts (or .csv) contacts into the web based address book. Who can remember mobile phone numbers :!: 2. Multiple recipients. Does it support this at present? 3. You already mentioned about the possibility of multi part messages, but before that happens...a..yes...Character Counter would be great :!: Pre-defined messages are a good idea, thumbs up for that. Also stated that you now use a different gateway; important for me and I'm sure others to find out which countries and Networks are supported? Can you post a link or give us a list? Thanks for feedback!
Guest Rob.P Posted July 28, 2003 Report Posted July 28, 2003 When's the app gonna be available to download for the SPV?
Guest ben_341 Posted July 28, 2003 Report Posted July 28, 2003 Please hurry up and transfer my credits and release the SPV app! REALLY need to be able to use this service again as 12p txts are killing me. Please please hurry! (message written light heartedly by a slightly frustrated and withdrawn sms addict) Regards, Ben
Guest amo Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 Asif please tell me what is happening asap
Guest summie Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 I hope I'm not being a spoil sport in saying why should I install a system on my sPV that makes me dial in to send an sms for 5p per message plus GPRS charges? :? The only people that the 10p charges are kiliing are those who send over 50 texts per month - and if you do this - you should really buy text bundles from O for 6p per message (or something like that). At least then its quick and you don't need to dial in. Also, why would you use this system on your PC when O and O2 are giveing away text messages online? Sorry asif, but your system is not for me unless you make if 1p per text
Guest fozzie Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 Orange international texts are 15p. So this service is 1/3 of the price. That's why I'm interested. Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest summie Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 Understand your point but would it not be easier to use the normal text messaging thing anyway - also do the text bundles cover international text messages. Furthermore, why not use the internet to send sms or even email :) I just like things to be easy D
Guest Firaas Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 Understand your point but would it not be easier to use the normal text messaging thing anywayCould be, all depends on what the SPV app is like. also do the text bundles cover international text messages. Nope, otherwise there would be no point in having a 15p charge. Also this kind of thing can be used to make text messges from abroad, which cost 40pish... Still, I don't have high hopes for Bread&Retina, or whatever it's called.
Guest ajb3000 Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 also some people (like me) can't get O bundles (i'm on ED50).
Guest strathclydezero Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 There's always txts for 3.3p at http://www.vgsmail.com/
Guest Firaas Posted July 29, 2003 Report Posted July 29, 2003 so it runs in PIE? Not designed for it, so it doesn't display well at all.
