Cant receive texts from non mobile no.s on W580i

Bp!

Hi

Got the W580i recently (love it) , but i was going through all the different settings and things and pretty sure i came across a function/tick box thingy that said "stop receving advertising text messages" or something along those lines.

Has anyone seen this option or was i just dreaming :rolleyes: as its drivingn me nuts trying to find it again. I cant receive any texts from no. like 57372 etc if i want to download any games or anything, it says you will now receive a text with a link etc and i never receive these texts and i can only imagine its cause i clicked on the above option

Anyone any clues or help...thanks in advance

i don't think its that. try texting random crap to 50131 and see what happens. that's aib's text top up service and you should get a text back saying command not recognised.

sometimes those services just don't send the texts

Yeh CV your right, i got that message back from AIB...that weird Ive never had this problem with any other phone when downloading games etc. Ive even been on the O2 homepage (on the mobile) and have selected to buy the games at least 3 or 4 times.

It always says after you send this text you will receive a link and i still never have. I reset my phone too to see if that worked and still nothing- except for a big minus in my credit

Also paid for the game on gameloft (which i had used before with no problems) and they also said you will receive a text which also never arrived

I is confuzzled

i'd say you should get onto the people who are supposed to be sending the text
