Getting paid to receive texts: Loophole: Former Genie (now 02 online) unlimited texts - free credits on 'WePay'

#1 (**permalink**) 10-05-2006, 12:22 PM

If I had unlimited free texts, and a Threepay payg (see
http://www.three.co.uk/priceplans/PAYGwepay.omp ) I can get 2p credited
to my account for every text I receive.

I get literally unlimited texts on a £10 tariff. So couldn't I just
text myself repeatedly?

There must be a catch?!?!

You can only receive credit up to the value you topped up your WePay
account.
