I have a Samsung S3 on T-Mobile, and today I have
zero mobile data connection. I'm just checking to see if other Heartlanders are on T-Mobile and if their data is still available?
I'm going mad without my internet fix!

Has this place become a mobile phone forum?

Bad timing
I always ask for tech advice online from friends. As I can't access Facebook
due to this problem, I've turned to the Heartland tech-team!

NEVER!
I'm back on now. Who knows what happened there? All that matters is that it's over.

Does anyone else think mobile phones are a bunch of arse, or just me?

Hmm, yes, I was given an old one by a family member, but it has mostly sat unloved, flat of battery at the bottom of bag. On the occasion I remember it and charge the battery I find it has the several of the daily "how's your day?" texts from Mrs B on it - that i answered when i called (from phone on desk) and asked what's for dinner...

... ok, there is sort of device round here as well, serving mostly as an, err ... alarm clock ...
...
Very rarely, I take it with me when I definitely need to phone or receive calls while I'm underway ... but hell, how often? Thrice a year or so ...

Are you saying you carry two mobile phones? At the same time?

no, only when i'm travelling home late after a whole day. i fairly often go to London after work for a gig and don't get back till 2am.

I kinda agree with Emily, I have two (2) mobile phones. One is my work number and one is my own phone. My work phone is a cheap samsung plain old phone with text messages, but great battery life. My other is an iPhone
I always take my work phone for possible emergencies if I'm travelling or going up west (That London Village) purely because it has a great battery life.
