    Why are so many people trying to send the text before it launches?

    really? well, if im not wrong lol, today is the 16th, the start day. lol, o dear.....

    no mention of time here, so should be from midnight.
    The power bar is being launched on Thursday (16 April). From this date you can get it by...

    Mobile customer: Text POWER to 365 (texts cost 35p).


    You can't get the power bars in third party stores such as Carphone Warehouse and don't text the number until Thursday as it won't work if you do so now.
  • Ah ok. 8am. All these years I thought 0000-0759 was the same day!!

    Damn straight I didn't get charged for those texts, EE!!!!

    gone 8am and still stating that it won't go live until the 16th. But they're happily taking 35p per text even if we're not paying for the return text.

    Nice little money earner EE
