PUMB your GSM

Started by Ewan · 1 year ago

    Krystal, I managed so sign up.

    This is a great service - except for the following

    1) it doesn't work - my main account screen says it's coming soon to the UK and the WAP URL I received did nothing
    2) most of the site and messages are in French even though I signed up to the UK service
    3) they want my BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS before I have even started to use the service
    4) the SIXTEEN PAGE PDF "contract" I have to agree to when I use the "service" is entirely in French

    Apart from these small issues it's a winner.
    Word of advice - don't bother.

    I took a look & agree with Andrew it's a complete shambles. I had to use some random digits to get it to take a post code as it doesn't accept the format of UK post codes. The mixture of languages is bizarre. I don't why people bother to launch when they can't even get the basics right. They don't deserve to succeed!

    Could not get the page to accept my UK post code. . so I ended up using a US zip code and that worked(won't accept letters for some reason).

    Once logged on most of the submenus that i click on, there is a message "This service will soon be available on your Pumbby account.". ..

    Hmmmm,. . . got a text message directing me to a wap site. . . . site in french and only 2 lines on the wap site on my phone
    "Votre pub est deja validee publicite". . thats it nothing more

    What does that mean and what next?.

    Good Idea, but a lot of technical work needed to make this work.

    BAck to the drawing board Pummby chaps
