    A lot of people talked about the Black Death back in the middle ages , it doesn't follow that they all wanted to catch it! The Crazy Frog adverts are on a par to this earlier plague .
    What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?

    Just hit the mute button during the adverts, that's what I do. Pity you can't have a "punch the frog's head in" button, never mind. :rolleyes:

    I've heard alot of bad things about Jamster, that people are often signed up to their text messages unawares then when they try to get rid of them they're greeted with a "sorry 14 day contract notice" which means their phone credit is going down £3 per text message each day.

    No wonder they have so much money to advertise when they behave like this.

    We may be talking about it Traf but I'm pretty sure none of us will be buying it though!

    I swear if I heard that go off on a phone now after being subjected to it constantly all day I'm sure I'd take it and smash it to bits :mad:

    Yes, that happened to one of my sons after sending off a text for a ring tone and he was bombarded with texts that cost him money to read them :mad: I had to get rid of his sim card in the end and give him a new one.
