stupid NPL sms's

On a ported number Des?

We struggle with them for some reason.

[Des]

Yeh, but it was ported around 5 years ago or something.

[Garth Kay]

Ported is ported.

As much as we advance in technology it just seems more and more bugs are created.

Don't mind port, gives pretty bad hangovers though...

I'm at a loss what is a ported phone and why the hell would you have one????????????

Ported number I assume Bob. As in, you ported your mobile no to your new phone. On topic, the NPL sms's have been a touch overboard lately.

So does ported mean you transfered your old mobile numbers calls to a new mobile that has a different number??????????

[Des]

No Bob, means taking your number from one provider to another.

i.e. You have a telstra mobile number, and you take it with you to optus.

Thanks Des. Like I said before, I/we can learn so much on here at times.

I recently transferred phone companies, and im still recieving the SMS's fine.

Maybe because i brought my number from a pre-paid phone to a contract phone, but they are working fine for me.
