Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

yes, especially by Three Ireland if the contract wasn't honoured, it could also be a phone which is involved in an insurance claim (i.e. listed as stolen)

call your network and give them the imei of the phone you just bought, and ask them to associate it with your number. it may not prevent the previous network from blocking it if they want to, but it'll be harder.
