    You are asking us to supply you with something that would be illegal?

    Wouldn't hang around expecting an answer to this...

    on ebay there are people claiming there is a way to trick your way to getting 300 texts a month free, however you have to ''buy'' the information so it looks like a con to me, as far as i am concerned knowledge only costs effort.

    best stick to the genie sims, order off the links on the freebies board
    things arent the way they were before, you wouldnt even recognise me anymore- not that you knew me back then ;)
    BH is my best mate too, its ok :)

    I trust BH even if he's from Manchester.. ;)

    all your base are belong to us :eek:

    according to ebay rules it is classed as an illegal listing, if they notice it then the listing gets removed, but some things slip through the net, i for one have seen people selling pirated dvd's, music and people have posted that blocked phones are being sold illegally. i'd stick to buying of verified sources for mobiles and getting sims off the freebies board if i was you mate

    I think this referred to the older o2 tariffs - top up £15 or £30 pm to get Talkalotmore free off peak minutes in addition to the standard 300 texts you got free. The o2 tariffs have now changed and you now select either free texts OR calls. I'd steer well clear fwiw :)
  • if you goto O2 website ou can send text for free from PC as i do it all the time when my free ones from phone have been used...

    Think I read bout this on another forum, involves you changing the time on your phone to supposedly trick them into thinking its the previous month... basically doesn't work!

    Another one being sold on eBay suggests you and a friend topping up at the same time and getting the credit on both phones ... again doesn't work
