random texts?

[anonymous-user]

I have got my banger for sale on ebay and have put my number in the add saying text me or call me for more details......bad idea

Have had somebody texting me about it then strayed completely off topic and talking about me? telling me to have a nice day and things.

I politely text back saying 'Give me a shout if you need to know anything else about the car'

They text back saying 'OK. I might give you a shout 2 find out more about you'

Just out of intrest can you be billed stupid amounts for texting an 079.... number?

[wadgebeast]

Doh!

No, the 079 is a standard orange number so it'll be normal text rate.

[Aubrey]

Yes. ETA, not sure about 079, Google says not, but certainly some 07 numbers you can be,

You muppet - never ever give the phone number out. Too many crazy bds around.

[Mc Lovin]

have fun!

If it strays off topic just start ignoring them. No need to be polite with time-wasters.

[anonymous-user]

why would somebody stray off like that. seems like a genuine person/number but calling vodafone just to check.

ETA: called vodafone to check. its a normal number just a stalker lol

How odd. I'd be watching over my shoulder a lot if I were you. You're going to get bummed

[RadoVR6]

Is it not a mate winding you up?

[anonymous-user]

Na doubt it, expressed genuine intrest in car before turning odd

1. Close your curtains.

2. Lock all doors and windows.

3. Hide.

Serious tho mate id be checking my phone bill.

I never respond to anyone texting to enquire about a car for sale. If they cant afford or be polite enough to make a phone call then I have nothing to gain from speaking to them.

Nothing to gain, apart from selling the car?

Indeed!

Sounds like this chap needs a few new friends...

...simply post his number up on here, also stating you are a 'hot chick, with a Saxo and a playboy bunny tattoo on your butt cheek'.

I'm sure the friendly offers will soon be flowing in his direction.

It's the SPIDER GUY........!!

[chunkymonkey71]

why not publish the number here and we can ALL text them back!!!
