Did we just have another Earthquake in Melbourne?

 

Very.

 

Any damage Brett?

 

No, fortunately I was holding my beer at the time so no spills.

 

I'm looking forward (don't pay to look back) at this one....Historic Racing Car Club - QLD Historic Race Meeting

 

Horse can you explain or know why on occasions when people send me a text it doesn't arrive? I've seen it as sent on their phone but I never receive the text. Thank you.

 

Vodafone?

 

Nope, I'm with Telstra as is my wife and my friend is with Optus. They've both sent me texts which I have not received. One from my wife arrived like 3 weeks later (that one was a picture). I've sent texts to that haven't been received!!! I'm wondering if it is my Samsung phone which has been a problem for quite some time.

Hopefully Horse can answer the hard questions.

 

Get an iPhone












Or learn how to use your Samsung

 

Is your name Horse???????????

Didn't think so. This is the ask Horse thread, not the ask PP thread.

 

Has the same problem when sending texts to my kids. Me (iPhone 4 and telstra postpaid), them (iPhone 3 and Virgin prepaid). Began to wonder whether it was Virgin prepaid that was the problem. Now we all have iPhone 5s, I'm still with Telstra and I switched them over to Virgin postpaid. No probs with texts anymore...

 

I'm not very obedient

 

Are you trying to tell your kids something?

 

They thought I was ignoring them, they'd text me and not receive my reply!

 

Happens to Kerrari and myself(I) on an extremely frustrating regular amount of time.
..and when I receive a text from Karen,the posted sent time is hours prior to me actually getting it.

 

Oh, it's your tongue your supposed to hang out. There in lies the problem. But I do have a problem of receiving but lets not go there!!

Thanks Horse.

 

I've had to fix OPTUS SMS system a couple of times in the past due to database migration, although they treat this with a high priority they just get it fixed when it stops and then wait for the 1-2 days it takes to catch up.

It's only SMS !!!

If something is really urgent you would use the phone

 

Whilst you DO have a point, what you're ignoring is that one assumes that the message went through to the recipient, urgent or not.

SMS is a very handy tool, and I've never experienced the problem Brett's referring to, but it would be very annoying if I did.

But Brettski, it won't be the phone.
