Wiki can be updated by anyone though right? I too believe UM may be gone, but I certainly will not believe what is posted on wiki 100%. Unless may be the information is usually verified before the update is allowed.

Or at least there will be a footnote citation at the bottom. But no source I can find.

Sadly, it's probably true, but strange that still nothing official.

Who on earth should make an "official" statement for a dead company? The liquidator, problably.

We have seen more than sufficient and clear indications of a bankruptcy in recent weeks, it has been a typical bankruptcy pattern.

Telekom.at is responsible for the operation of the +423 cards, not UM, so their half-dead status only indicates that Telekom.at is not dead. It is upt to them what to do with the SIMs.

This horse is dead, so get off!

Default And then he said................... UM account access update - 26-04-2009, 22:02

Today, I was able to log in and see a balance of $0.00, But also see a phone call I received this morning showing a $3.60 debit.

This is strange indeed.

Financial press and telecom industry media would normally pick up on this sort of thing quite quickly...and Google shortly thereafter. So the silence is strange.

Yikes! That's it- no more crabby pills for anyone in this forum! All sims are cancelled until morale improves!
