THE END of Chikka.com???

[boliklik]

---

got no problems with chikka coz wla man nako gi register ang ako cel #.... and i informed all those i txted 2 reply 2 my cel....

[imjazagrl]

same here... i tell those whom im txting to to reply on my number and not thru dat txt i sent them, thru chikka, for them to avoid the deduction.

When chikka upgraded their teal into a higher version, where MMS sending was possible, that's the time when automatic charging of P2.50 started... but doesn't it also depends if the receiver accept the message?
As a perpetual user of chikka, i feel sad of the news but if they also have given us the wrong information regarding their deduction processes... that's such a big insult and abuse to us users.

Here's what's so entertaining about this story:

Taken from the website:

The hands of NTC are tied to the Republic Act 7925 [Philippine Public Telecommunications Act of 1995]. As much as there is ground to penalize chikka.com, we cannot do so because there are no penal provisions under the law. We can only order the telcos to stop charging subscribers who receive messages from chikka, Mr. Cabarios said over the telephone.

Until now, we still don't have laws against this?

murag wala pa jud.hehehe

>bayad ka uy dugay lang kaau mo deduct ako jud na nabantayan sa ako prepaid kay hibung ko ngano na >kida akong balance nana nuon P .50

sa una pa na bai.panahon pa sa bill crusher nga phones...tag 1 week dli mo load akong ka text, maka dawat man lagi sila.den inig load nila ok ra man, no deduction..duda gani kanang mga ads na sa smart/globe..or basin ba kaha na silay "now deduct or deduct later" nga method?

talking about ads sa smart and globe, nailad jud ko anang globe nga free ringtone. 1st ra diay ang free then autodownload and auto deduct everyweek nga tag 12/15 pesos...trice nko gi report sa globe ayala pero mao gihapon.even ang employee ni ingon nga, "ako gani sir, nag problem sad ko. Til now sige deduct".

kung tinood mag deduct sad ng chikka, ka wala sad nila ayo...

i think they are tracking the wrong railway.. on my personal experience, on my prepaid sim.. even if i recieve tons of chikka messages from friends/relatives.. it doesnt deducts on my prepaid load. as far as i know it ONLY deducts when you REPLY on the chikka number.. in which i also do the same(as other istoryans suggested) to tell the person whom im sending the sms to reply directly thru my cel.

“We got this impression that people were being charged whenever they sent a text message from their computers to a mobile phone subscriber. The order was not meant to stop Chikka service. We just ordered telcos to stop charging,” Sarmiento said Thursday.

this is why I f*cking hate people who send me SMS thru chikka.

why so?

Atay! bantog ra dali kau mahurot akong load!

so you put the blame to chikka when you sent a reply or you should point the finger to the sender?
