Advantages: Vareity of stuff

Disadvantages: EXPENSIVE AND UNDERHAND

What a bunch of scammers. Basically Jamster provide thousands of, ringtones pictures and games for mobile phones, which you can download

From the lastest chart sounds, to oldies too. They mainly advetise on the TV or on magazines. They were the brains behind the 'Crazy Frog' Epidemic back several years ago. Also behind the only popular tone of 'Sweetie chick'.

It costs a couple of quid to download a ringtone or a game from Jamster, But please read the smallprint. If you do order a ringtone from Jamster, You'll be what's called subscribed to their services. If you have credit on your phone or if you're on a contract you'll get charged around £6 per week for using Jamster. This is charged within forms of text messages sent to your phone updating you of services. These messags are charged at £1.50 each, deducting the amount from your airtime or bill. This willcontinue every week, until you ask Jamster to be unsubscribed, which can be dififcult.

Many young users of Jamster often end up loosing £100's pouns unknown to them per year because of this.

Yes Jamster have the t&c's stating this on adverts, but often or not the t&c's are either too small to read, or shown very briefly. Or they are shown, but the distraction is led to the pathetic new range of ringtones on the tv.

You'll be better off uploading your own music to the computer and then downloading it the to phone, its ALOT cheaper.

Jamster are very underhand in their dealings as with most ringtone providers.

Summary: Not good
