Just got off the phone with them now they said the main common straight forward reasons would be either my mms settings or I havent got credit i need something like £1.41 on my phone to be able download the picture to access the gprs but it wouldnt take any money but in order to get everything activated id have to send a picture message first.

So gonna top up £5 soon and we wil see

Btw mate thanks for your help appreciate it
