Having no credit or texts. Does it bother you?

KKkitty · 11-10-2012 08:16PM #1

As the title says does it bother you when you have no calls or texts. I went almost all day without them and I have to say I was a little bit lost without them and before anyone says it I know it's a first world problem.

Eh, no...sometimes I don't even bring my phone with me :eek:, it's nice not being contactable all the time adds and air of mystery

Billpay ftw

Webtext.
The time between leaving work and getting home means I can't phone/text which is only an issue when something happens and have to phone work to say I'll be late. But having no credit is a handy excuse for showing up late and not phoning ahead..

I've not any credit since july. My phone is off 95% of the time. I just like not been annoyed by stupid phone calls

Get a smartphone - free texts with apps.

sent from my iphone

I haven't had credit since I started college 4 weeks ago. Been using webtexts and viber when I'm at home. It's slightly annoying but I'm over the worst of it!

Couldn't be without calls, texts or data, hence I have an unlimited plan.

admiralofthefleet · 11-10-2012 08:29PM

KKkitty · 11-10-2012 08:32PM

Get a bill pay. Prepay is a false economy, especially now that data is the main thing that kills credit.

depends on your usage tbh, if you only use texts and data prepay is great, 20 quid a month on most networks gets you free texts and data.

A problem you'd never hear a person living in the third world whinging about.

A very small problem. It's like having the tv remote not in arms reach and having to stretch to get it to change the channel.

They wont be included in the package

3ndahalfof6 · 11-10-2012 08:48PM

When I walk into the bank and they tell me I have no credit (im not good credit material)

but we will text you our new offers to get credit,

this kind of piiises me off.

hawkwind23 · 11-10-2012 08:49PM

smartphone and apps like viber , fishtext , calling cards etc.
i wouldnt have bill pay near me.
i use tesco (o2) and every tenner is tripled for calls and texts , data is about £6 per month for 1gb.
so i top up a tenner a month and that does me.

but i havent had credit now for a month , its probably the first time in years.
cant say it bothers me much

Here's hoping

El Guapo! · 12-10-2012 08:45AM

I'm on bill pay so I never have to worry about no credit.
What písses me off though is when other people have no credit and they constantly send you "call me" texts all day. I get at least 3 or 4 of those texts a day. Fúck off and buy credit you miserable bastard!

pickarooney · 12-10-2012 08:52AM

I've a 2 euro a month plan but I don't use anything near the amount of minutes and texts that are on it. My phone makes a good MP3 player though.
