Yes I use the mobile text service, but that costs twelve p per text and then
twenty five p too. A total of 3 7 p per prog. Ten progs, £3.70 chuck in a
few misspellings, and you have one hell of a mobile bill.]
Yes, I would like to know how manual record works please. Email me at the
address below. Thanks.
Hope to hear from you soon.

I know what you mean, I was also really fed up cause for ages I want round
in circles with the accessible listings before I realised that they had
screwed it up.
It's a shame we have to use it inaccessibly because the feature is actually
very good.
Have you tried the text messaging version, this is OK providing you know the
format to send the message in and of course providing you don't mind wearing
the 25P confirmation message cost.
When I'm at home I always use the manual record method it works everytime
and if fast, if you want to know step by step instructions write to me off
list mate.
having said all that I still would be lost without it all be it with its
drawbacks.
