Anyone else using Straight Talk as a cell service?
Are you getting daily UNSOLICITED texts for the weather
from TWC?

>Why are you asking?
Cause I am getting two text messages a day with weather
reports from what "looks" like TWC or The Weather
Channel!!!
But I NEVER solicited for these texts what so ever!
And..... it looks impossible to stop them cause the
number and address they come from are very strange
looking indeed!
Any advice?
I've contacted ST but all I get are CANNED email
messages with no real info in them

Can you contact TWC through a 'Contact Us' link, or is that missing too?

They don't have a phone number where you can actually talk to a real
human? Cancel the bastards on the spot!
The canned email 'help' messages I get from various entities are NEVER
applicable to my problem. Mention that T-Mobile (phone+$100+$10/year
thereafter) was happy to cancel spam and that ST isn't the only crap
game in town.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
Picture yourself near a stream.
Birds are singing in the crisp, cool mountain air.
Nothing can bother you here.
No one knows this secret place.
You are in total seclusion from
that place called the world.
The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall
fills the air with a cascade of serenity.
The water is crystal clear.
You can easily make out the face of the person
whose head you're holding under the water.

Thats the tradeoff of going with a company like that. They don't have
their own cell system and are a reseller of service they buy in bulk and
work on pennies.
