My local news station ran a story last night about a 14 year old who ran up a bill of £200 just on text messages it worked out to around 18,000 text messages IN A MONTH

And you thought you had a problem

Yeah i saw that article in the national paper too.. kid was like 14 but looked like he was around 9 or 10 years old!! And yes god damn!! thats a hell of a lot of txt messages!!

He was like sendin txt messages from breakfast til about 2am!!! and was sending them to school mates.. even when they were in a break!!
And then he had the nerve (bless him) to say that he thought it would be cheaper to txt instead of calling his mates up!!! Bless him..

Hi there! There was a mistake in ones operator smsc billing system and people who even had no money on their prepaid cards were able to send sms for free- a friend of mine gave me his card-it was not registered Prepaid card with no money on it-i connected my 6310i to my computer and i sent sms for about 550£/900euro/950usd- i sent them to special(more expensive)numbers in order to get access codes to many websites in my country-every sms cost about 2£/3euro. The next day this card was totaly locked!;-)

Butt i seen that if you send a hello to your friends on the TV it cost up to 30 krones for one sms. then if you send alot of 30 kr sms then it will be alot of money fast!
