    well look on the bright side, no more phone calls on ur mobile...get urself another sim and go on payg...and no-one will have ur new number xx:j:j

    Lol, if only it was so easy. I can still receive incoming calls just can't call out myself. I've still got over a yr on my contract & it's the 1st time I've been l8 paying it, so it's not on my DRO application.
    I am a Leo...& as such I will defend my "pride" ferociously....you have been warned!

    I dunno. My mobiles my lifeline. I'd be in real trouble without it. I'll have 2 have a think about it. I'm more worried about the people that turned up on my doorstep 2day, even tho I've already spoke 2 their head office on saturday. I got a txt this am, saying will u be on if we call round in half an hr, I said no, I'm out. Within 10mins they were knocking at my door. Think I'm gonna have trouble with this 1 :(

    No, I've got them all ready 2 post & will be doing so 2moro, I just couldn't believe that they're at my door already.............like flies on s***! I thought I may have trouble with these as they're doorstep lenders. I think it bothered me more cos Sams at home, if he were at school I'd have torn a strip off them.
