You can register only one mobile phone number per account for TEXT ALERTS service. This means that if you hold more than one Account, you will need to register for each of them separately.

For joint account holders to one account, the Text Alerts will be sent to only one mobile phone number belonging to the main/joint applicant.

You have to de-register TEXT ALERTS for your old mobile phone number and then register for TEXT ALERTS on your new mobile phone number.

If you have not received your TEXT ALERTS please ensure that the SMS facility is 'switched on' for your phone. If you do not receive your TEXT ALERTS after the SMS facility has been 'switched on' then please contact our customer service centre on 0344 412 4444 (Calls to this number use free plan minutes if available, otherwise they cost the same as 01/02 prefix calls)

The memory capacity on your phone has probably been used to the full, which may be indicated by flashing envelope sign . You will need to delete some of your existing messages in order to free up some space on your phone. If you do not receive TEXT ALERTS after freeing up your phone’s memory space, then please contact our customer service centre on 0344 412 4444 (Calls to this number use free plan minutes if available, otherwise they cost the same as 01/02 prefix calls)

No, unfortunately we are only able to send the TEXT ALERTS once. If a TEXT ALERT is deleted it cannot be viewed again.

If your phone has received a TEXT ALERTS, it will be retained in the phone's memory even if the battery dies. Just re-charge the battery and then retrieve the TEXT ALERTS in the normal way.

Some phone models allow you to change the way in which you are alerted to incoming messages. Check that you have set the ringer option 'on' and the volume is not at zero.

You must report the loss to your service provider and ask them to disable your phone. You also need to contact our customer service centre on 0344 412 4444 (Calls to this number use free plan minutes if available, otherwise they cost the same as 01/02 prefix calls)

We recommend that you stop TEXT ALERTS service if you are taking your mobile phone outside the United Kingdom. This is because the security of any foreign telephone network through which text messages might be transmitted to your mobile phone cannot be guaranteed and there may be enhanced international roaming charge for which we recommend you get in touch with your network service provider.
