I Did Not Know That!

That's what I thought. Thanks friend. Still a tad scary though to me. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

So have you seen your info stored on the puter at all? Does one need to set up an account aside from the cell phone service to access this info? Or is it out there for anyone at all to access? Too scary for me really. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

You get free access to your account online and it is private unless someone has your password.

I woud guess in all areas if the providers have a web site in the country. It's kind of scary to a poi9nt. I would guess the phone user sets up an account with a password. So not anyone at all can get access. But the fact the info is stored is scary enough. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

yes..I agree...

i knew that. but i don't really care if t-mobile or orange knows about my stuff

Who knows what purpose storing them for a bit serves. Let me know when you know something then? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Yes it is good to know. But also a tad scary I think. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I did not know that

Well be it right or wrong it is possible to retrive deleted items. Ugghhh! This can also be a good thing at times as well I suppose. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Yes they do ask. But I wonder how long they are kept on file with the providers web sites? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Most modern technologies allow for human error when it comes to deleting files. They'll ask you "are you sure you want to delete?". Personally, if I were to delete something, especially after being asked that, I would consider it completely gone for good.

Yes it is errie. Anyone that works at the provider can see what you've done with your phone. I imagine some wierd texts and images/videos have been stored. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

ok

Kind of scary to a point isn't it? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I couldn't do that job. No way! Yeah, I guess I could. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Same as me. I really hate cell phones to a point. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I would think all cell providers store them even if for a little while. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

o more than anyone can see your online activities etc. A password is set up and if someone knows that, then they could see all. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I use my OnStar phone in my car. It's like a prepaid cell phone. But it is all voice activated. I seldom use it. Maybe 300 minutes a year I use. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I have never had a cell phone and more than likely will never have one. I have OnStar with a phone in my car. The OnStar phone is all voice activated so hands free calling and talking. It is like a prepaid cell phone. I buy minutes each year for this. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

That sounds handy.

I have OnStar in my car. It has a voice activated phone built in the radio. Like a prepaid cell phone. I buy minutes for this service is all. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Well, granpa, they have access to onstar data base as well & if somebody wanted to, they can track down on where you are & where you have been for past so many hours or days or whatever. Or at least where your car have been. They can even listen in on your conversation in your car if you're carrying on a conversation with someone in the car. One of the ways that the onstar contacts you when you get into an accident is exactly that. In case there's been an accident, & the person inside the car can't talk, they have the ability to tune into your car & see if there's any noise of movements inside the cabin of the car. Again, I'm not trying to sound like one of those "paranoid Conspiracy theory" people but that's just a commonly known fact & feature of "OnStar" service. Now you know. Next time when you decide to come up with some sort of plan against someone, I wouldn't talk about it in your car, ha ha ha ha.....!!!

See, this is another new bit of info I didn't know. I don't own a cell phone so it is all new to me really. Thanks also. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Oh pease beleive me, it is true. One can retrieve their texts and images from their phone online. I know someone that has done this just recently. Kind of scary too. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Maybe big sister is watching? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

The listing of phone numers I guess is the same as deleted texts and images. Oh believe me it is true. I know first hand it is true. I don't klnow if the ACTUAL image is there, but the file is, be it in computer language or whatever. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

That is why I like OnStar in my car. A hands free voice activated phone. Like pre pay cells. I buy minutes each year or whern I am nearly out. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

They can't keep them forever. But, as I said, I'm not worrying. I have nothing to hide and am not into anything illegal. I don't text message or send images over the phone lines, either. We don't have text messaging on our plan, either. I'll keep my phone. Couldn't do without it on the road. Too many things happening in this world not to have a cell phone when a woman is out on the road by herself.
