Good Points: None for me.
General comments: My daughter entered her number into the site which doesn't warn you that this amounts to signing up. Since then she has received numerous unsolicited texts, adding £15 to her bill in September and £30 in October. She is 14 and had no idea what she was signing up to - why would she? I am not happy with this, therefore do not recommend boltblue.com.

i like that you can send stuff to your mates and not just yourself, it's modern way of sending someone a birthday card (you don't even have to bother to write it). I'm definitely gonna use boltblue again and would recommend it. One of my mates uses them for emails for his business and says it's great.

It seemed to take lots of my credit away when I had just bought my new phone so now if I put £10 on it within 2 days without me using it I am left with 18p it seems... its stupid and I searched for free ringtones it never said anything about it being £4.50 a week as far as I am aware?!

Like others, I Googled for a free ringtone, and upon entering my number was charged £15 to my account as a PAYG balance to use. They did text me a number: 08700209312 which is their help line. The operator answered the call quickly, was very courteous, but I did not yet received a refund.

Just googled for ring tone and entered my mobile no. in Bluebolt - before I knew it they sent me about 8 texts telling me I had an account with them - I only wanted to look at some ringtones! I finally text to stop to them but on my next phone bill they had taken £15.00 from my account as far as I am concerned. Tried emailing them but have had no response so far. Therefore I do not recommend Bolt Blue.

Too many too list. Not worth the money for me, £63 for text messages that I was deleting not realising they were costing as far as I am concerned. Cant get refund & they should not be allowed to operate like this in my opinion. Therefore I do not recommend boltblue.com

Went to look for free ringtones on Google and there was Boltblue so I got to their site and ok, the ringtone was free but only if you pay £15 but the £15 you pay for gives you so much to use. You can send texts from your computer to other mobiles and it works out a lot cheaper. Got my first ringtone for free and received it within seconds. I was even able to use my balance of £15 to send stuff to friends.
Just think it's great that you can send texts to other mobiles and even a ...

Promotional website (you are taken to when googling for free ringtones) is legal but not in the spirit of the law. It is awful and will cost you £15. Does not say on this page ringtones are not by original artist - by the time you find out it is too late!

This website is not recommend by me. I had £25 in my phone and after I subscribed on boltblue I had only 20p. And I couldn't even download anything because the WAP on my phone does not work for some reason and I didn't even get my money back.

It takes all your money when I thought it was `free`, I have a new phone and it has not stopped sending me messages which as far as I am aware I am paying for. I do not recommend Bolt Blue to anyone!

I used Bolt Blue not too long ago and all I did was download what I thought was a free "Spider Pig" Ringtone. I recieved a text to download it onto my phone, did so, then recieved 8 texts saying Media Message you nee to top up to recieve, I has 2 pound on my mobile, however I eventually did top up with £10 and it immediatly all went of the phone. Therefore due to my experiences I do not recommend Bol Blue.

I do not recommend Bolt Blue because I put £10.00 pounds on my phone the other day and it just went, but I cant think of any other reason apart from I subsribed to the website boltblue.com the other day.

I had received a 'promotional' text message upon receipt of a new phone and thought it was part of the initial set up of the phone until I got my bill!! I eventually found out I had to reply STOP and still received a further 2 messages!! I explained to them that I've never used their website and wanted a refund as it was an honest mistake .They refuse to budge and offered no goodwill gesture whatsoever - they are simply not interested. I have just sent them another email to tell them that I w ...

I tried to use all of their features to send cards and SMS overseas to USA & Ireland (their site says you can). I couldn't even send one to Australia! They take your money and then make you spend it .. without delivering. If you try to call the call centre you won't ever get to have a call returned or speak to a supervisor. They'll even try to tell you they don't know the name of the supervisor.
This company is bad. Email every teenager you know and make sure they never get sucked in by them. ...

Bolt Blue took $30 credit out of my daughters mobile phone account on the 26th June, for a subscription she has not subscribed to. I have cancelled the subscription, but they still send her SMS messages, which cost her. I want it to stop, as this was done without consent from her. She is 11 years old, and she has also not had parents permission at any stage. I will chase Bolt Blue until they deposit the credit straight back onto her mobile account, and I won't accept a cheque.
