First Anniversary Combo Breaker
HI,
I have an 02 Genie Simcard in my mobi. I believe you can either pick to have all free texts or all free call or a mixture.

Can anyone tell me how to check what mine is set too,as I want to make sure I am just getting the 300 free texts a month.

    send yourself a text, then check your balance, if 10p is missing then you on free calls

    send the keyword "ONCALLSMSG" to 21300 for the 100mins and/or 100txt

    I'm not sure whether the advice from mOOnie is entirely correct as it will not deduct credit from balance because if you have the 300 txt option then it will deduct 1 txt and if you have the 100min and/or 100txt it will deduct 1 unit (i.e. 99mins or 99txt)

    It does actually say this but when I changed over (and a friend of mine) it happend the following day but yet other people have had to wait until their anniversary date.

    If you want the upto 100mins and/or 100texts then as mentioned by reddwarf2002, just text "ONCALLSMSG" (without speech marks) to 21300.
