Boltblue.com

UPDATED 11/03/01: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I just logged back in to this site to download a new ringtone, and to my surprise, I received this message: "Sorry, Ring tones are only available for Boltblue Xtra users. You are most welcome to continue using other parts of Boltblue." So, what exactly is this Boltblue Xtra? According to them, Boltblue Xtra gives you access to hundreds of new ring tones, including the latest chart and dance-floor hits, together with an increased allowance of both i-contact PC-to-mobile text messages, so you can keep in touch with your friends, and of icons you can download ... more

Well, I first found out about Boltblue.com through a guy at my work, he was on it every lunchtime downloading stuff for his phone. What the hell, I though to myself, I'll give it a go. So off I toddled one lunchtime to explore the site. The front page can take a while to load, but most of the time it's ok. It is clearly laid out, nothing too fancy here.

Easy enough, click the register button, you will need to pick a username, a password and give them a few personal details (including your mobile number and the make of your phone) Then ... more

www.Boltblue.com is another of those websites which provides a free SMS service. I have found this site to be one of the best that I have used. Along with the free SMS service you can also get Ring Tones for most Nokia phones, new Operator Logos, e-mail and there is also news and weather available. The variety of the RingTones and Operator Logos available is quite extenisive and is organised very well into individual categories. For the Operator Logos you get a good idea of what it will look like as they give you a preview of the logo. The e-mail is the usual of what you would expect from a ... more

Once upon a time on a website not to long ago I could receive reasonable quality ring tones and graphics at no charge straight to the belly of my mobile. Like so many eager web users from the mobile generation I was to blind to see what you were doing. When Mulder said to Scully “the truth is out there” boy has truth raised its ugly head! A wave of change has taken over Boltblue greed is the key, and its all your money they want to see. The market has changed the push from marketing profit to making customer profit has set in. Before most companies tried to make money from ... more

After purchasing my Nokia 3310 some weeks back, the first things that I tried to sought out were free ringtones and logos for my new baby. Two sites which supposedly provided for both of my needs were recommended by friends, yourmobile.com, and this site, boltblue.com. Unfortunately, the later did not provide all that I had wanted, for the following reasons. Firstly, by the time I got to the site, they had stopped giving away ringtones for free, and now you must pay £2.50 for a starter pack before you can order. Needless to say, I was not impressed. Fortunately for my bank account, logos are ... more
