Good evening. This video took long enough to upload. I must try and get them below ten minutes. Maybe I should write a script and read from that.
I didn't go out today, the weather was horrible. Drizzly, cold, and windy. Let's hope it is better tomorrow.
Now going to watch my Sunday night viewing on yooootooob, and cuddle Mayze.
Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip. ilona
Totally understand and agree with you about digital, so frustrating isn't it. Vanlife appeals to me too. I wonder if the need to upgrade the phone just applies if using the Internet on it,maybe texts and calls will still be OK. Nick
ReplyDeleteYes, frustrating. I always say we should move forward in life, but what if we are going in the wrong direction. I will sort the phone out later. It works for now.
DeleteHi Ilona, please don't let the sales people convince you to get another mobile phone plan or unnecessarily spend money on another handset. If all you want is calls and texts you can continue to do this using 2G at least until around 2033! Yes, 3G is being switched off, but that will not affect you with just calls and texts. If you go in asking them to 'sort you out' they'll fleece you of your money to help them hit their sales targets! I agreed with you on digital, fed up with it and I'm in my early 40's.
ReplyDeleteThank you. No one can sell me something I don't want and don't need.
DeleteIf you don’t want to upgrade your phone Ilona, you might be able to utilise 2g as it’s not due to be switched off until later on, I believe. It allows phone calls and texts only. It depends if your carrier will still provide it, so you would have to check and maybe switch companies. This article tells you about it: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9959/
ReplyDeleteMight be worth checking out. Hope you have a nice day. Weather looks promising here.

Yes, I think Tesco are jumping the gun a bit and wanting to up their sales. They can wait until I am ready. I will check your link. Thanks.
DeleteWhy not Google 3G and obtain some information about the shut down? It is all out there. Your phone may still work or it may not. There are still plenty of basic call and text phones out there so get yourself one if you need to when then time comes and just wait and see. If Tesco are your provider for the phone they are doing what they should do, informing you. If you heard nothing from them then you would complain that they had not told you about the 3G shut down. It is as simple as that.
ReplyDeleteThank you Rachel. I will look into it a bit more. I think this text is all about selling me a new phone.
