Surprisingly, Jamster has received quite a number of negative feedback from its customers. Bottom line is, they do not get their money’s worth. Although they have quite a large collection of mobile entertainment content, delivering their content is the problem. Aside from this, this is not a free website. So when a subscriber pays for a ringtone, he should get his ringtone without any hassle because he paid for it. Frustration comes in when they do not get what they pay for.

To be a member, you have to be subscribed in a plan. It is not advisable for people who do not plan to pay at least $5.99 a month for content download.

What is good about this site is that FOX owns it. Contents are freshly updated. You have the Family Guy, The Simpsons and The Cleveland Show as downloadable mobile content.

“Jamster is the latest in the long line of ringtone websites, although its not the usual pay for a ringtone and call it quits. Jamster works of a subscription so although you pay less per ringtone you do get sent a lot more and in total at more of a cost than you would normally pay. They also explore the world of mobile games and videos as well, but how much fun can you have looking at a picture. I know this isnt a massive review but to be honest … that if you do sign up to make sure you know how to get out if you want to. If your a parent make sure your kids know about these sites as they are very attractive and could easily end up costing money than the average pocket money pays. …”

“Jamster! Just the sound of it makes me cringe. When I worked in a mobile phone store we used to get an endless procession of people of all ages coming in to complain about the vast sums being debited from their phones. This is a blatant rip off, preying on the vulnerable and impressionable. That Flippin’ Frog should be grounds enough for re-introducung the death penalty, regardless of any of their other activities. The plan is very simple, 1. Con …”

“It’s the coolest site to be on and there is not a bad word you can say about them.”

“I ordered a ringtone at a cost of £3 from Jamster, and the amount was deducted instantly. When it came to downloading the tone, it turned out to be an invalid file type. This was after I had checked that the particular ringtone I’d ordered was compatible with my phone, a service Jamster also provide. After the tone failed to arrive, I filled out the section on the website dealing with such problems (twice), but I got no reply either time. Of course I will never use Jamster again.”

“Jamster are ripping you off and the ringtone they give you starts in the middle of the song rather than the beginning. Stay away.”
