O2 Online text service down?

[AhmedRSi]

Is the following site working for anyone?

http://sendtxt.o2.co.uk/sendtxt/action/compose

My contract txts have run out and i really need to send a txt!

 

[AhmedRSi]

I get the following error

Redirect Loop

issue and not your computer.

Tried on IE and firefox. so im guessing its a server side issue?

I have no problems with it.......sent a few this morning when my phone died.

Have you looked at your cookie settings?

Are you going there through the homepage or a direct link?

I got some pish sent to my phone today about something being down till the 20th, didn't read it properly though.

Turns out its my account on o2.co.uk, tried my brothers ... worked fine! so i just reregistered

Coincidentally i phoned up o2 to change contract details earlier and he told me "you do know you can just keep signing up accounts so you get free texts online? its only limited to 15 or so per ip so go nuts!"

So i have

150 free texts a month fTW

 

[Alan]

150 a month...no joke i've done that in a day before...

 

[AhmedRSi]

Tell me about it....

I managed to run out my 1000 text limit in the first week of this months contract. Hence trying to grab some free ones so at least i can txt people and say "no credit ring me lol!"

 

[Alan]

Aye indeed...

Should switch over to orange or tmobile matey, or even change your 02 contract, they're all offering unlimited text, infact vodafone are too on most contracts..
