    Bribe my mobile phone network

    Hello, I live in the UK and I have a phone on the o2 mobile network. Recently I discovered (by accident, I wasnt tying to be clever) how to make free calls between and two o2 mobile phones.

    I was wondering what the best way to try and bribe o2 would be, bearing in mind that if they found out my address they could probably then trace my phone to find out what i'd been doing.

    I want to say to them something like 'Hey, I can make free calls, if you give me X amount on money I'll tell you how and then you can fix it, otherwise I'll just post it on the internet which will cost you alot more when other people start doing it.'

    Any thoughts?

    I take your points, it would be fun to just post it here anyway but as I am a uni student I am very poor and in need of money. For alcohol and such like. Besides, they have screwed me enough times I feel the need to make them repay me.

    when I was a student, we used to have these dail tone generators (you could buy them from Tandy and places like that. Basically it was like a calculator, but the keys were like a phone key pad, and all it did was produce the phone tone sounds. This was in about 94 so before people had mobiles). You held them up to a payphone's receiver and dialed the number you wanted to call, then pressed 99 on the payphone's keypad, and voila..... free calls to wherever all day long! It was great for about 4 months, then BT fixed the loophole. But by then nearly everyone I knew had been gettting free calls for ages. Would love to know of a new way to get free calls!! Can you PM me?

    No! My only experience with a Greek company was when I once hired a motorbike from a shop in Corfu
