Q 3.
Why did I receive multiple SMS messages after purchasing with the phone bill?
OpenBit handles the billing of premium SMS purchases. Below are some answers to questions on purchasing applications by phone.

Q: Are you billing the application multiple times because my phone sends more than one message or I received more than one MT message?
A: The application price may require sending multiple messages because the price of one message may not cover the total price of the application. For example, if the application costs 10 euros and your GSM operator supports a premium SMS with nominal value of 2 euros/message, 5 premium SMS messages will be sent automatically to cover the application price. In some cases this may mean that you also receive 5 messages back.
Q: I haven't bought anything recently, but now I receive tons of SMS messages!
A: The premium SMS messages used for application payment may not be sent immediately after the purchase. Depending on the cost of applications and how frequently you purchase them, the messages may get sent immediately or perhaps after a few weeks or even months. This is because the total value of the payment is not even multiple of the nominal value of one individual premium SMS set your GSM operator and Openbit does not want to charge you any more than the exact price of the application.
Q: Do I need to save the messages I receive in order to legally use the application?
A: It is ok to remove the messages received from your operator. You can legally use the application after you have approved the SMS sending (= payment of the application by premium SMS). You do not need to wait until you receive the messages.
