Never had this happen to me.

You can prevent it if you are aware of it, but some, it seems, still aren't aware.....

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

It amazes me in this day and age...and after all the press this has had ....that people still seem unaware of sma conversion to mms.

I am not being facetious as I have no great knowledge of anything techy....but I always think if I have known this for years...then why doesn't everyone?...:smileywink:
