Title: Doh!
Post by: Taxi_Driver on 30 December 2007, 19:14:27
My mobile phone stopped working this afternoon......wouldnt make any calls or receive any!  :(

I did wonder if I'd paid the last bill and if not, the SP had turned it off.....couldnt remember  :-[

So just phoned em up.......from landline......and asked why my phone had stopped working.....was it a payment problem?

After answering security questions.......the blokey checked.....No Sir....your bill has always been payed on time every month......your a model customer  ;D

He also said he couldnt see any reason why from his computer screen why it wasnt working.....so he suggested have you got signal?.....yes i replied

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Erm no I replied....I havent turned it off since ive had it......thats over 12 months ago now  :o

So i did as suggested.........and guess....its blooming works again now  :-[

Tis funny I guess........you get pc probs and one of the things you try to resolve is a reboot........my mobile runs windows mobile and I never thought to try giving a reboot   ::)

I sent a text yesterday and it never arrived.  Mrs C told me to check my in/out box as hers is full at 15 - I had nearly 500!

Apparantly you are advised to off/on every now and again to prevent probs - so I did and all is well again now.

So it's not just you Dave  ;)
