Even if you dial up 1471 every day or use it for messing about with the £1 credit on it will they cut it off aswell then?

Most networks cut off a prepay sim if not used for 6 months. They just think your not using it so they reuse the numbers. I used to have an old friend on Vodafone and her number had 7 zeros in it. Great number.

I know i have been here before but whats going on with O2 again. Not sure if its related to the iphone with increased data usage but getting connected with O2 lately is at its worst ever. Has anyone else had my problems or is it just me and the 3 masts in my area. Its like everyday now for sometimes upto 2 hours i get no internet connection and an engaged tone. Its like going back to the bad old days of early Vodafone. I remember those old days of Vodafone constantly getting an engaged tone. WHY. It cant be just me can it. I have the best and most solid coverage i could ask for. Help im going mad. My settings have always been the same and i know im doing nothing wrong. The thing is for most of the time i been with O2 its been great.

Miss UK i have the answer to that one. 2 of my brothers are on Orange and quite often when i get long texts from them i get that *some text missing*. What you need to do is when you recieve the text just stay in the text like when your reading it and it should keep updating itself. I have found that works. Sometimes it takes a min or two. Dont know why but it seems to be a problem with longer text with the 2 networks on GSM1800 i find anyway. So just read the text and stay in it and it should update with the rest of it.

So O2 are not doing 12 month contracts for upgrades ???
I upgraded in May and kept my £25 500 mins and unlimited texts and that piece of junk K850i I sold as soon as possible.
If they are not doing 12 month contracts on upgrades I will move and take the whole family with me 6 PAYG customers, not that they will be bothered.

Bonovox, when was the last time you had your sim card changed? And have you tried a different phone?

My sim was already a 3G one. I rang customer services they sent me a new one. Still the same problems. Anyway my K800i is an O2 branded silver one and i only had it since June. Never actually had any problems with it except its a little slow with the menus at times. My settings were right selected 3G in menus. It happens quite often now and although i can live with it cos its only so much of the day it happens(not at peak times oddly)it is poor. Things are obviously not what they were im afraid cos this never ever used to happen. I dont want to move networks to be honest but it is driving me nuts at times. I know im not doing anything wrong i know alot about mobiles.
