On another note, Ive been recieving unsolicited txts, but from a genuine Dublin based travel company, you have won a 400 Eur travel voucher redeemable at bla bla, call 1550xxxxx etc.

Is this even legal?

Possibly legal, probably unscrupulous.

Call Esat or Vodafone and ask how much the number costs to call, it could be €1.50 a min to call, so check first...

and also if you reply they will know the number is in use.

Sedning unsoliceited commerical texts/letters/emails is illegal in Ireland.

We have a specific "opt-in" policy - ring the operator of whoever sent you the text and they will get a severe rap on the knuckles / account closed.

I have heard that if you get junk texts from vodafone, O2 or whoever just reply with the word "STOP" and they should stop. I think STOP is the only word the Computer recognises or something?

I really hate getting txts from Ringtone Comapanies.

I think it's legal because most peoples numbers are in the mobile phone book...
