Does anyone know if boost really plans on fixing the short code issue with there phones. Boost said they are, but i've also heard that they intentionally block short codes. Was just wondering if anyone really knows what's going on with that.

Bah, not sure. But if Boost does block them all automatically, good for them. Personally, I wish all cellphone companies blocked Premium Txting Services indefintely, or at least didn't handle the billing for them. They cause such major headaches.

'Txt here now for 10 free ringtones' 'Txt here now to flirt with singles in your area' 'Txt here now for your horoscope!'. Everytime I see those commercials, they make me cringe, because I know it's creating another 'I didn't subscribe to that' call. 😢

i just want to be able to access twitter on my phone and because of the issues with short codes i'm not able to do that right now. It's very frustrating, I am really thinking of going to another carrier.
