Do they pay people to call to my cell phone randomly? Cause i get a lot of phone calls Of strange people looking for someone or services and stuff. My sister has a cellphone that all calls are free and no one calls her. But my 50cents a minutes attracts every crossed line. Sometimes people call from other countries asking in other languages i cant figure out. Other times are machine calling with a prerecorded message. I mean come on! i hate going to the phone and just putting the mute on. Every day at any hour, i find it strange that its an old number and gets a lot of attention. Any of you have the same problem?

The truth is. As long as you have a pre-paid phone this is bound to happen. Your phone number could have been owned by many different people before you, and eventually will belong to someone else. That's the problem with pre-paid phone numbers. Because its pre-paid its not perment. Unlike land lines pre-paid phone numbers often change randomly. Its not uncommon. In fact, your phone number is most likely recycled. Your sister probably doesn't have this problem because she's using a post-paid service. I can't be certain of this, but contracts and post-paid things are actually good. There are plans out there at fairly good priceses if you know where to look. I suggest getting a phone with a bit more to offer then what you're paying for with pre-paid shitt. Of course that's just one girl's opinion.

Believe me that phone has like 8 years with us so no one has the same number, plus i sometimes ask people that call and the phone number doesn't resemble the least. Anyways the phone is just in case of emergencies so i don't use it much. I spend on it like 120 bucks a year so i don't mind. If I'm gonna make a long call i use my sisters free calls contract phone ;)

My cellphone rings everyday! I received a minimum of 7 text messages a day. Some I do know. Some...never heard. Sometimes, it is the same number. But I always replied back. Maybe we are both friendly.
