"O2 Rip-offs"

I bought a ringtone from O2 Internet on my phone and it worked fine, they sent me a text saying 'Subscribe to P2 Ringtone of the Week' and you can get a ringtone every week for one pound. So i subscribed and the next week they sent me the text with my choices, i chose one and it worked fine. The next week they sent me the message again, i replied exactly the same as last week (how they tell you to in the message) and they sent me nothing. Then the next week it didnt work either, so i emailed O2 asking how to unsubscribe from their ringtone of the week and they wont answer me! I called them and it says 'you call is in a queue, please hold on your call will be answered as soon as possible'. This number costs like £1.50 a minute, so sure i am going to hang on for 30 mintes while they wait to answer my call!

RIP OFF
RIP OFF
RIP OFF!

They're just midi files.

Search for midi files and woooooo!

How do you get free tones?

I hope you realise if you had of asked someone on the forum (coughs: ME !!) I could get you free ringtones. All the latest for free!

More than twice!

I just haven't got a dongle, so that's how I do it.

Nope. Just find a free midi site.

Yeah but it still costs to download them.

And if you have infrared or bluetooth, twice as easier.

Why download ringtones? If you've got 02, then you'll have GPRS enabled on your phone right?

Just go onto the Internet, get a MIDI file of your choice, upload it to your own webspace and download it straight to your phone using the browser. I've got loads of ringtones from doing this and seeing as my GPRS is completely free, there's no problem at all!

Plus search on their site for help to unsubscribe, it will be there somewhere.
