Default mobile alerts

I signed up for messenger mobile alerts on my bell (canada) mobile phone and
added hotmail to the list by accident. I tried manually taking my mobile off
the alerts list and emailing support but I get generic answers like "try a
different support site" or "Its not us, it's your phone". support-bots will
inherit the earth.

I saw the unsubscribe feature (a looping link to nowhere) but couldn't get
anywhere with it. Did I miss something? Is there is no unsubscribe script?

Im kinda ****ed because I have to pay for every text I get whenever I get a
new email and since I subscribe to a number of newsletters my pocket vibrates
every 2 minutes.

(PS the service stinks because you only get 3 lines of the email and have to
send numerous times to get most of the message)

yes.
the adjustments to hotmail alerts do nothing. Unsubscribe sends me to
hotmail calendar where there is no option I can find to unsubscribe - just
to turn it off (again....nothing) the link you posted AND its live version
support both tell me "I dunno"
I found "change my service" under My account on
http://mobile.msn.com/Ruhp.aspx
which pulls me through the signup proceedure. that was what I needed but
with features like "change hotmail alerts" and "change mobile settings"
before it I just never got that far before...

I still think the options page could use some tweaking and organization, the
alerts settings don't turn off when they should and the hotmail alerts
filters do absolutly nothing. is bung.
