Is there something wrong with my iPhone? A bug?

[175170]

I've had my iPhone problem-free for a very long time already, until today. I try to listen to my voicemail, and I get this really weird text message (pictures are attached). The thing is that every time I listen to my voicemail, a text comes up every single time. I check my text message usage but strangely, no text has been recorded being received by my carrier. I plug my SIM card into another cell phone, and I didn't experience any of this. The even more bizarre thing is that this text is sent on September 4, 2012, which hasn't even happened yet. What is wrong with the phone? Is this a bug on the phone or something? Thanks!

Exact same thing. I was about to post it until I saw this.
Once I saw that date, I was very surprised. Errrr... very creepy too.

Or, you could just use AT&T on the iPhone and not have these problems.

Why do you use T-Mobile? Is it because it saves you $5 a month?

Actually, saves me approximately $25 a month.

Now that you put it in BOLD, I can totally understand your point.

Without a doubt, AT&T has better coverage. Maybe not in your particular area, but across the nation, AT&T blows away T-Mobile.

As far as voice plan pricing, here is what I found from both company's websites:

AT&T: 900 minutes @ $59.99;
T-Mobile: 1000 minutes @ $49.99

So, you may save $10 and have an extra 100 minutes with T-Mobile. However, with free carrier-to-carrier calls for both plans, the better deal may lean towards AT&T since they have a significantly higher customer base (which means more free calls). All of my friends have iPhones, so it is free to call them because they are on AT&T.

As far as data, I did not easily find that information on T-Mobile's website. I do know that I pay AT&T $20 per month for unlimited data and 200 text messages. Mind you, I have the original iPhone (not 3G). I am assuming that you have the original iPhone too because the 3G does not work properly with T-Mobile yet, right? (I have been out of the jailbreaking/unlocking seen for a while, so I am guessing that there is still no unlock for T-Mobile and 3G. Please correct me if I am wrong). So, what do you pay for data with T-Mobile? AT&T customers also have access to all of their WiFi hotpsots (most of which they stole away from T-Mobile when they struck a partnership with Starbucks).

So, to get from that $10 savings in voice plan to the $30 total monthly savings that you are referring to, I assume that T-Mobile gives you free data and free 200 text messages. Is that how you get the $30 in total savings?

I am not a salesperson for AT&T. I just don't get why T-Mobile is so much better (and keep in mind that I used to be a T-Mobile customer).

Most importantly, my AT&T iPhone works fine and yours doesn't. As far as their customer service, I am under contract and still treated like GOLD.

MyFaves. That's the answer. With 5 numbers you can call as much as you want, I'm saving $30 every month. Over the past month, I have used around 2700 minutes talking to the people on my MyFaves list. If I went to AT&T, the charge would be absurd.
Oh, and also for security purposes. I wasn't willing to give my social security number, or any sort of identification. I called up T-Mobile to activate my new SIM I got off Amazon, and after my fifth call, somebody was nice enough to give me a FlexPay account even when I wasn't willing to provide any sort of ID.
Oh, and that gets me to another point. FlexPay. In AT&T, there are no reasonably priced data plans for prepaid customers. On T-Mobile, you get the same plans as people who sign up for a contract, albeit a more expensive phone, if you purchase it from T-Mobile. As I have an iPhone, this is great.
No 2 year contract, but still having unlimited data, saving $30 a month, no giving out any ID.
Looks pretty good to me.

I didn't test any of the solutions posted on here, but the problem seems to be solved?
Are other people still having problems when you're checking voicemails receiving a text from the future?!
