How to deactivate your Smart text alerts?
Dec 20, 2009 Mobile
I have been complaining about the unsolicited Smart Telecom advisories about their current promos. I have been receiving annoying logos, as annoying as a sexy girl posing with her bikini. I also receive some monotones with .amr format. They say it’s free but if you subscribe you can receive related stuff within a week. I say these were unsolicited because I have not subscribed or activated any of their service. Well, maybe this could be a course to all Smart Buddy or Prepaid subscribers. We are all bound to receive these text spams.
I have been sending “Alerts Off” messages to 211, as stated at end of their text alerts, to unsubscribe, but to no avail. An automated reply says that the service will be deactivated after 2 days or 48 hours but I still receive them, after that span of time. In fact, I still receive these alerts until now when I have already unsubscribed for three times already. I have sent a complaint letter a couple of times already but I always get a “we’ll see to your problem” replies. The customer care hotline is always busy as expected.
To all Smart subscribers who once had this problem, how did you deactivate your text alerts?

Trying the Smart Uzzap Beta

One thing I love about the new phones are the 3G internet. It makes me browse the internet everywhere. One thing’s missing though, the chatting feature. I couldn’t login to my Yahoo! Messenger through my laptop because of busy schedule and of course, I don’t bring my laptop anywhere I go.
I found a cool service from Smart called Smart Uzzap where it allows me to chat with friends, even when not in front of my laptop or PC. It’s a recommended service to Smart subscribers on-the-go but needs to connect to their loved ones online most of the times.
