Free messages with 02 cards...
got my free sim cards and saw the £40 free calls hack on the forums here.
Anyway, I've got a 20MSSIMN set of cards, and I needed the £30 of free texts. I tried to register, but it was asking me if I wanted to update my phone settings. By completely cancelling the call, I hadn't 'activated' my sim.
Gave it a bit longer, then thought "try and ring someone".
Didn't work
So I text someone
sucess! So I tried it on my own old phone and had no problems. Service balance 0.00p!
Still sending now, got about 30 so far...

wonder if this will work like the geenie ones use to, where you change the time on your clock and it never registers that you've been using the text for 24 hours? might be worth a try.
I cant see how o2 are so hot on stopping these sims from being used like this, a friend of mine was made redundant from a vodafone call center and as part of her leaving package they awarded her a years free line rental or similar, now 2 years on and her highest mobile bill was for £2 so if voda are at least 2 years being i'm sure o2 wont be that quick off the mark eitherRunning total for swagbucks - £270 since Jan
Running total for superpoints -
