Hi Eleanor,

The best way to receive a contact from someone to be hohnest is to ask them
to send you a Business card.  A .vcf file.  Your phone can just import it
straight into contacts.

All the best

It did not work that way with Alex's business card Steve, no.  I only had 
the choice of adding it to my contacts and even then I had to put his name 
in!
