When you want 2G Edge credit you cannot simply buy them at 7/11. You must first buy credits for Truemove and then send an SMS to Truemove to convert the credits to 2G credits....

Or at least that was the case until 2 months ago. Now nothing seems to work.,,

I used to send to this SMS address the credit request ( 90020 ) but that no longer receives SMS messages. I then tried one other as it appeared to be the right one in new adverts but nothing happens (see advert).

Is anyone else using Truemove pre-paid 2G Edge? How are you using it now?

Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, the process for pre-paid mobile data has been to add value to your account, and then subscribe to a mobile data plan. There are many options for both adding value, and subscribing to plans/promotions.

Service providers may also have one-time mobile data plans, and monthly recurring mobile data plans. The former expire at the end of the term, while the latter will automagically renew assuming you have enough remaining balance associated with your account.

What is it, exactly, that you are trying to accomplish? Please be very detailed re: your phone (exact make and model), budget, requirement.

Finally, are you using TrueMove, or TrueMove H? TrueMove's GSM1800 concession was scheduled to expire on 15 Sep. 2013 but was given a sort of life-line until 15 Sep. 2014. I'm not sure exactly who is managing the old TrueMove network these days, and whoever they may be, perhaps they have new procedures (i.e USSD codes/plans/promotions) re: GSM (2G) data? You might be better off switching, either via the MNP process or with a new SIM, so the new TrueMove H subsidiary.

Maybe the on-going dust-up between CAT, TrueMove and the NBTC is impacting service?

Here are the codes I use for true H. Usually I get 30 days 1 GB unlimited Internet. Sometimes shorter terms.
