*3001#12345# is meant to be a code to open up a debug menu, containing things like, changing what your phone says.
But I’m still wondering if there is anyway to obtain free credit. Its could be in that menu, but there is meant to be a lot in there..
I’ll check..
But if you know anything, please post.

That would be a Nokia code.
There is a way free text messages can be done depending on the country and service provider.
It's in message center. There is a number your messages are directed through. This relays the message and bills you accordingly. Service providers have message center numberes where there is no billing but it will still forward your text message.
These are changed often by the provider as it's mainly for technicians testing purposes.

The center numbers can be found on the internet. We used to have alot until Vodafone and O2 took over the market here. Now there are none.

Hey, phool, I think you mean phone phidgeting. Well, nevermind. Never been a big fan of alternate spellings myself . Seriously, though...wouldn't they figure it out if you were doing this?

Yeah, they do figure it out. Free txt's from the alternate msg center numbers usually only last a week or two. They change the numbers often.

Most free SMSCs (Short Message Service Centers) last little more than a few hours. They are, however, totally legal with all UK Mobile Networks apart from T-Mobile. There will usually be a delay, as the SMS is routed through another country. I have had a free SMSC last 3 or 4 weeks before S&S (Send & Sorry, where the message claims to have sent but never arrives) and I have seen them last less than two hours. If you really can't afford to send a SMS, just use the internet. ICQ offers free SMS, although it doesn't work for me to British Networks. For British Netowrks I use www.cbfsms.com

BTW: *#06# on any Nokia brings up your Serial Number *#92702689# (war0anty) brings up your waranty menu. You have to reset the phone to get out of it. *#746025625# (sim0clock) stops your sim clock, which will save battery life.
There are more, but these are the only ones I know off the top of my head.
