  • Foolish me - can anyone help?
    (not sure if this is the right forum)
    I entered a UK Comps competition yesterday and now am being inundated with text messages from 66333 and 87770 - I have an elderly mother in law and need my phone on over night - texts coming through all the time! Vodaphone say I have a content bar so can't text back STOP but to stop them I have to ring 08717503155.
    What has anyone done in these circumstances ? Feeling desperate :(

    Is there a problem with the BGs at the moment, I've been catching up on comps as I've been offline for ages and I'm over 200 pages behind, there's lots and lots of comps still on the board that ended 2/3 days ago.

    I don't want to moan as they do a fantastic job, I just wondered if one or more of them was unwell (or something)

    You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time

    If anyone gets in a similar position my phone operator has given me this information:

    66333 is Mxtelecom either send text with STOP; or email [EMAIL="customercare@spongegroup.com"]customercare@spongegroup.com[/EMAIL] or ring 02076121910

    87770 is lottobytext - either send text with STOP; or email [EMAIL="support@lottobytext.com"]support@lottobytext.com[/EMAIL] or ring 08451309911

    say something like 'please make sure I am removed from all of your services'

    you may need to give them your email & address

    I may be ok - I have a premium content bar ; I just have to be patient as I was told by the first number listed there are x automatic messages and as long as you don't reply you don't get subscribed ...we shall see if it stops I have already had more than the number they quoted ....

    I recommend FarFast Form Filler. I think it is the fastest way to fill out business form by tab-and-type without using mouse.

  • I thought form fillers would make loads of mistakes, they must be quite good then? How on earth would I go about using one (on my laptop)? I read about Firefox having one but can't find it anywhere!
