Effective today, July 23, 2009, the NTC Circular on Push Messaging by Content Providers will be imposed.
That means you should not get any spammy SMS asking you to download a ringtone or wallpaper, subscribe to some text or call promo, or join an SMS contest (however, if you are already subscribed, you will still get them alerts).
And all these started when Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile discovered his mobile phone was subscribed to a ringtone service and his prepaid cellphone load just vanished into thin air. And the ringtone he got — Careless Whisper. The rest, they say, is history.
A huge billion-peso industry was shaken up because of Hayden Kho. Now that’s what we can refer to as a real-life example of The Butterfly Effect. At least, all that Katrina Halili + Hayden Kho scandal did some good.

@Jessie: If you got problems with businessmen then POOR YOU! You don’t even know what you’re talking about. So pathetic. If you don’t know how to make money then that’s YOUR problem. Don’t blame people who are obviously smarter than you are.
@Pink: I totally agree with you, sister. Also, there are still SMARTER businessmen who aren’t greedy and not just there to make a profit. So please don’t generalize. I don’t understand how and why people praise this certain Enrile for what he has done. Do not forget that this Enrile is monopolizing the matchstick (posporo) industry in our country. Now that explains why these illegal loggers are still there to destroy our environment and worsen our global warming. tsk tsk
When will Juan dela Cruz learn that these politicians simply give us a “moro-moro” show? Ooops. Am I generalizing or what? Ha-Ha. Im not including Ate Vi, though. Im a Vilmanian! Go Ate Vi!
(And Im not even from Batangas. Ha-Ha)
To the Enrile fans, go ahead. Text REACT (space) YOUR MESSAGE and go to hell.
…and never gonna dance again. How about Cha-cha?

@ Jong De Ramon
nakakaloko kasi ang mga Push Messages niyo.
Akala kasi ng iba porke nakalagay Free and habang buhay na Free un mga Ringtones at Wallpaper niyo.
Wag mo isisi sa mga subscriber.
Dapat nga may option after the service kung ieextend pa nila yung subscription or hindi.
Kaso ang lumalabas automatically extended at patuloy sa pagbawas ng load nila.
Kapag naman isstop na nila napakaraming prosesso at sa dami ubos na load nila bago pa man mastop yan..
@ Goosebumps
Ok naman ang nakapostpaid na Senador ah, atleast hindi niya ginagamit ang Pork Barrel niya para sa Postpaid – Corruption yon diba? Tama lang ginawa niya. Kita niyo na kahit si Sen. Enrile nabibiktima niyang Spam sms na yan. Akala din siguro niya free for life tapos nahirapan na siya s-unsubscribe services na nakuha niya. Eh pano na lang yung mga mahihirap umintindi? LOL
Careless whisper? hahahaha!!
to unsubscribe to all spam messages, just type the keyword STOP and send to the access number.
