Advantages: Free, customisable, useful!

Disadvantages: Hardly anything new.

For those of you that aren't aware, Virgin Mobile has recently changed its Xtras. The old Xtras still exisit, but Virgin Mobile customers can, at www.vxtras.com, sign up for personalised SMS alerts.

Services include football news and results, music charts, horoscopes, music charts, alerts when major music releases occur and such like. You can sign up for the whats on at your local cinema, very very useful! It's all free, so you can't complain!

Although saying all that, there is not a lot of difference between myalert.com and VXtras, so I wouldn't recommend changing networks purely for VXtras. It's a nice addition!

Virgin also have updated their WAP site, for if you have a WAP compatible phone. The choices are the same as for text alerts, but you get it all in greater detail...
