My Life With IT

Misleading advertisements don’t work very well. Proclaimed to get the chance to buy something after answering an SMS correct but in fact, it doesn’t work that way. You actually get charged for every SMS received. The thing is that you are automatically subscribed to an SMS per day unless you answer more SMS received that makes you the unsuspecting subscriber and still get more charges for each message received.

Screw Glomobi. When I didn’t reply, it means you don’t have to send me any more SMS but you did it so happily because I am charged for 5 unwanted SMS from you. Each SMS cost me $2. You have now earned $10 from me. The option to stop the SMS was only given today and not during the initial part. So that’s how you cheat people of their money, huh?

Every other SMS I have received from other companies always include the option to stop in each SMS and not only after 5 SMS from them. Glomobi, you are a big cheat. Nothing but a scam with misleading/fake advertisements to let people thing that one SMS will let them buy a product at a low price when it’s actually a draw.

Excited that I could just answer a question and stand a chance to buy a Wii at $9, I decided to SMS to the number flashed on the screen. It cost me $2 for answering the SMS and I only got a 10 point congratulation SMS and got to answer more questions. It’s a scam. I must have been out of my head.

That advertisement flashing on TV was a total misleading headline and the terms and conditions were too small in print. I guess that’s the purpose of fine print. Starting to hate fine prints.
