Hi People in today's generation can't live without a mobile phone. Now, it has become an important necessity for everyone just like food, water, shelter and clothing. But, I have another experience to share with you about mobiles. I receive wrong sms or calls now a days. I don't know how people track your contact no: but it's very irritating. At times, I used to ignore such messages. Have you experienced any such issues or problems with your mobile? You can share it with me.

Most people are becoming addicted to mobile phones and it has continued to affect their concentration especially on young school children. SMS messages are sent even without verifying the identity of the recipient which makes the whole issue very annoying.

i do have that same problem. the most recent one is last week when a guy called my number and asked to talk to this person which i forgot what his name is but i knew that it is a guy's name. so i said that he got the wrong number. then he asked for my name and said that he wanted to get to know me. so i just hung up then. luckily he didn't call or bother me afterwards.

Yeah even these days i get blank calls and spam smses which sometimes annoys you to the core. U also get wrong calls may be because of cross connection. And sometimes when u really want to call someone urgently, u find the network congested or busy.

yes, cell phone is very important nowadays and we cannot live without mobile and we need to use mobile for communicating with people which we do daily. you are getting calls from WRONG numbers, the sentence has your answer it is WRONG number dialed by caller mistakenly and he/she did not know that. most of the time people dial few numbers wrong and that makes huge difference in the receiver location, language etc. people change number that is why their old numbers get assigned to other users and when we call them our call get received by other person that is why some people get calls from wrong numbers. getting sms is quiet weird because we do sms's to those people whose number is saved in your mobile and we type number very often. company calls and sms's are very common and I think we get them daily though we subscribed or activate DND (do not disturb).

Some people sometimes mistype wrong number and thus send a wrong call. And for SMS bug you can blame juvenile delinquency of the teens who try to gather some ill fun by messaging. Mobile phone actually kills the time and energy of the low age boys and girls distracting them from their valuable studies. It snatches away their attention and penetration into thinking as well.

Mobile phone is really like the air I breath but I use it for only one person, with my best friend. Well, I remember,once with my old no. Somebody sent a message, it was a simple forward.. instead of asking 'who are you' that moment, asked him after several days though he didn't send anything after that. I gave him miss calls and once he received(that's how I know he's male) and I cut the phone. He was too much irritated that he sent me a message in abusive language.. hmm I didn't SMS him or miss call after that.

I used to got messages like you.Text messages like offering condo,house or loan.Sometimes scams like saying that I won something and need to claim by doing or sending this and that.Some do ask for textmate.I don't bother myself to reply to them and just delete the messages.Sometimes irritating if happen all the time.

Yes, wrong calls are not irritating to me as long as the person at the other end is nice and gentle to talk. However, I received a wrong call when someone called me and insulted me. I was totally depressed. But that of SMS, after reading it, I might just alert the sender that he sent to a wrong number and I think he should resend it to the right person. Where I do have un wanted SMS is with the mobile service provider who fills my phone with their advert or promo which am not interested. I keep on deleting. I wish I can whit-list their number so that any time their message is coming in, it will bounce back.
