    Companies conning customers

    It's theoretically plausible, but if it were possible to have texts expire providers wouldn't need to send texts when a user gets a new phone which includes internet and MMS settings and request the user to delete text then restart phone. It's a massive violation of your privacy... But hey it...

    Companies conning customers

    Interesting. Unless O2 retentions have some sort of software which allows them to infiltrate customer texts (which is entirely illegal) I'd have to say it's more likely to be something else and pure coincidence. Ultimately, your service provider HAS to give you a PAC code on request and issued...

    Companies conning customers

    Couldn't tell you 100% for Vodafone, but it is readily available. The contract you were given when you initially took out the contract, visit a store or call customer service. As well as that, most companies now send a text informing you that you are now eligible to upgrade. While the online...

    Not Carphone Warehouse no, why?

    Companies conning customers

    Completely incorrect. Your contract automatically rolls over once your minimum contract has been served (12/18/24 months). This isn't a con, as if your contract ended entirely at the end of your contract your phone would no longer work and you'd lose your mobile phone number. Secondly, It isn't...

    Anyone done/doing (sports) journalism at uni?

    In my third and final year at Brighton Uni studying Sport Journalism. A few things, a degree in Sport Journalism is only half the battle. You will 9/10 times be expected or requested to go an obtain the NCTJ qualification as well. This is where Brighton Uni is different. They not only give you...

    A question about 4g mobile

    There are 4G versions of handsets. For example, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is a 4G device in the US while the UK version is not. Once the 4G network released by Everything Everywhere in September, devices will be launched in the UK with 4G capabilities. It is also expected that products such as...

    Is buying a laptop from pc world a bad move?

    You will ALWAYS find electronics cheaper online (except for Apple). So one thing you could do is use PC World to actually look, feel and use the equipment before finding it cheaper online. BUT, if you buy something like a laptop or a TV or anything that has even a small possibility of needing...

    Dull phone upgrade question

    So to answer your questions. It doesn't matter if you choose to go to Carphone Warehouse or the Orange shop itself, but Carphone as a third party seller sometimes offer you "free gifts" such as games consoles etc on selected tariffs and phones (usually the ones they struggle to shift though)...

    Blackberry techie help needed ( @Bozza please ignore ! ) .......

    Basically, you need Blackberry Services added to your contract. It will cost you £5 extra a month and allows you to browse the internet, use the email and BBM (Blackberry Messenger). Call up customer services and they can apply it within 24 hours.

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    May have been the case with iMac's a fair few years ago, I didnt have too much to do with them more the laptops but since the iPhone Apple seemed to pick up the quality of their products across the board and they are reaping the rewards looking at Apple sales versus Windows in the computer...

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    You've just confirmed you're talking about Apple products from previous generations. Since the Intel i-series processors came out the MacBook Pro series has used i5 and i7 processors across the 15" and higher range. They kept the 2-duo chip in the 13" MacBook until they ceased to make them and...

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    Lower down the line? Explain to me how any current version of the MacBook pro or the MacBook air is considered lower down the line? Think you're getting yourself confused with a Apple computer from a previous year, in which case yes the previous model would have older "dated" parts.

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    The example I provided was just that, an example. There will be many times that an Android phone is running with a fault that the user hasn't noticed/ hasn't encountered for weeks. But they are common. No confusion. Forgive me for using small words, it would seem ignorant of me to start using...

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    Sorry, just because YOU personally haven't experienced the issue, does not make it "crap". There are millions of SII handsets, have I said that every single one of them suffers from this issue? No. I have merely stated that from the experience I have of dealing with customers issues on a daily...

    Android challenges Siri and wipes the floor with it

    Bozza is 100% correct in everything he has said. I work for Everything Everywhere (Company which owns both Orange & T-mobile) and deal with sales, returns, complaints, repairs etc. Apple products are at the top of their markets, in every market they are in. iPhone - number 1 selling phone...
