Hi

I texted Big John @ Hallam FM the other morning, and couldnt believe my mobile bill today.

I have been charged for sending the text, and also twice as Hallam Texed back.

I once texted one of those 'lowest unique bid wins' and it only cost about 25p, but I then got three texts back from them saying that I was no longer the lowest bidder, my bid was no longer unique, and please have another go. In the end I had to text 'stop' to them to end the messages! All in all, it cost me about £4.00! Don't risk it in future - once they have your number they bombard you with texts at your expense!
