"Mobile Phone problem"

I'm having a problem with my phone. My network is Virgin Mobile. Well, on my phone (the T610) it should say the network I am on on the wallpaper page, but it's just blank. There is no network coverage, so I can't make a call. Also, when I go to GSM networks and search the one I want, the one I use (T-Mobile UK) isn't there, and it's automatticly (bad spelling) on 02 UK. When I try to change it to another one it just goes back to 02. I have no credit on my phone at this time. also, I joined up to that 02 text thingy, do you think that might be the problem? When I go onto WAp it says GPRS has failed.

Yeah but not very well, and it turned out not to be a problem with the phone. But if 'I did fix it however its mucked up again' is acceptable I'll have to try using that one

We didnt know a thing about it, until there was an article in our local paper, loads of people are really upset with it. They tried to fob them off by saying the power of it is no greater than a taxi radio transmitter or whatever. But then again taxi radios dont emit high frequency microwaves do they. *fumes*

Marzman.. but a professional did fix it see. However its now mucked up again :|
Herr Dark Wolf I will advise you if virgin mobiles are anything like virgin internet. You'll take ages in getting it fixed

They actually have a really good customer service.

A big mother then. Did they ask your permission? The mobile phone companys have to by law- but I bet they didn't

That reminds me, they're putting up a 20m mobile phone mast just at the top of my street. Tis a residential area, so it'll be pretty annoying for those who'll be able to see it directly out their window's. But thats what you get for it being one of the highest points in the city...

Ask virgin if they offer some sort of nuisance payment. My sister got £2.50 from O2 when her e-topup didn’t go through properly. Alternatively, have them place a transmitter on your house, you get rewarded pretty well

Something is wrong with T-Mobile cell in my area. Apparently it will be back up in the next 24 hours. Virgin have a pretty good customer service though.
