“This is robbery and why is it not being stopped by Ofcom”
Written on: 11/03/2013
I have xperinced much of what other reviews have said, the question is why is nothing being done by the overseeing Ofcom watchdog. If I did not not pay for my mobile I would be cut off, if I did not have a TV Licence I would be taken to court, so why has this robbery not been dealt with by the so called authorities.? (read more)

“Charged for receiving texts”
Written on: 26/08/2012 by noneeeeeee
Like nearly every other review, didn't agree to anything, knowingly I now get texts every month and they've cost me £50.00 so far. Spoke to o2 and have had the number barred. Tried to contact Zingphones without any joy. This tantamount to be ing mugged. If someone took something from me without my permission they would be accused of robbing me, Zingtones are no better than thieves. I want my money back !!!!!!!!!! (read more)

“Rubbish company”
Written on: 22/04/2012
I entered a competition online in the hope of winning an iPad. Since then I get 3 text messages every Sunday which cost me £4.50 just to receive them! Dear only knows how much it would cost if I actually read the rubbish Zing Tones send to me. I called 02 who gave me a telephone number for Zing Tones. I rang the number and was asked to key in my mobile number, which I did. An automated voice then told me there was no such number, even though I have had the same mobile number for the... (read more)

“CON - RIP OFF”
Written on: 01/01/2012 by AfricanViolet (1 review written)
This company should be banned from luring people (in my case on Faqcebook) into doing a simply IQ test and before you know it you are signed up to £4.50 per week for nothing (unless you download) This sort of practice should be banned as obtaining money by deception for not supplying anything. There should be a law against this and no doubt someone will pass the message on and stop them. (read more)

I do not recommend this ringtone website.
They have took my phone credit as far as I am aware, and I have not been able to download I ringtone yet as far as I am aware. I have had to change my sim card in order to stop my credit loss. Therefore I do not recommend Zing Tones.

I experienced it when £3 off my credit had gone and an SMS message informed me of it. It subscribed me without my knowledge as far as I am concerned. I was angry so I called the number for unsubscribing and I unsubscribed. The call cost me another few quid and therefore I do not recommend Zing Tones.tv. (read more)

Last night I topped my sons phone up with 15 pound and still at half eleven money was disappearing of his phone and I cant think of any other reason but because we bought a ringtone of Zing Tones, even though we sent stop after the first text as far as I am concerned. My son is 9 years old and doesn't know what it is, can someone comment me with details of how to stop this. (read more)

Do not subscribe to this! Then even when you unsubscribe, Zing Tones keep sending you advertisement messages, which cost YOU £1.50 each. Every time you top up, they take credit. Reckon they owe me about £30 now. You'll end up having to buy a new Sim to get rid of them. (read more)
