Free Ringtone From Tsn And Molson Canadian?


Recommended Posts

I got in and received a couple of text messages. The last one stating, "You're almost a mobile Insider! Your pin is ####. To complete registration enter PIN online at www.molsoninsider.com" When I got there, there was no place to enter a PIN. I tried it with my cell and it wouldn't even pop up on my display. Anyone have any idea what I need to do? When I tried it with my pc i got as far as my profile update. www.molsoninsider.com gets redirected automatically to www.molsoninsider.com/insider/lda.aspx. HELPPPPPPP please.

For some odd reason, I don't think it was available in Quebec... I was chatting on msn with a buddy from Ontario, he was arguing with me about it being there. I even tried to follow his instructions as he went through it, I was always re-directed and he wasn't, go figure.

It's just the "Hockey Theme Song" (I think that's maybe close to what they're calling it now), so if you have a USB cord for your phone, the easiest thing to do is just get a copy of the song and load it onto the phone (I think most phones come with the cable nowadays, which kind of kills the whole 'paying for ringtones' thing).

I got several problems too.. at first I couldn't get in the website. Then, I texted to the number they gave and they told me there wasn't any ringtonw left for today (that was yesterday). then I texted back this morning and they gave me a link, but my phone couldn't download it. so I ended up paying like 3 dollars for nothing :angry: how did everyone get it?? are there ringtones left?

Ok people... I finally got mine, it's very simple, all you have to do is to not follow their directions. :P

Use your text messaging from your cell phone, text the word hockey to 665766. You will have to answer a few questions and text 'em back. Apparently, they only send out so many per day. I tried many times after work and kept getting the message, "we have given out all our Tones for the day...".

After a few days, I got a lil discouraged like the rest of you. But this morning, as I got up I messaged them and got my ring tone. Your best bet is somewhere after 9:30am. I even tried right after midnight, thinking that they'd start with a new day. I think their day starts somewhere around 9:30am, I got it without any problems this morning. When I tried at other times during the day, I kept getting the"we have given away..." message.

Good luck, hope this helps.

Winnipeg Jets, I tried to send the tone through bluetooth to a friend and it wouldn't let me. It's been copy protected and though you may be able to download it and add it to your phone with a USB cord, you might not be able to use it as a ring tone. It has to be the "ring tone" version, otherwise it doesn't work. I've tried to use songs from my computer and couldn't use them as ring tones. I'd add them to my phone (like you said through a USB cord or directly to my scandisk), but when I tried to set the song as a tone, it wouldn't let me. I'll see if I can upload it somehow, but they purposely block it so you can't share it and you end up having to pay for it.

Hm, interesting. Both phones I've had have no problem using mp3's as ringtones, but I'm sure you're right that certain phones only allow specific formats to be used.

You're lucky then. My gf's phone is the same way, she can use MP3's. Most of the people I know, including myself have to purchase ring tones.

Your instructions worked great. Thanks man.

Also thought I'd mention that I tried at about midnight with no luck (same "we gave them all out msg") but then I tried again at about 8:30 am EST and it worked.

Yeah he is, with a Blackberry I can upload MP3's no problem now, but on all my previous phones I couldn't.

My pleasure, I went through the same frustration you all went through before actually receiving it. Yeah, the midnight thing doesn't work, like I said before, early to mid morning seems the best time.

Lol. Yet another reason for me to move to Canada :P

Only way to know, is to try it... Use my instructions I re-posted for you, I think in worse case, you might pay international texting charges (something like $0.60/text). Keep us posted, let us know if it worked.

You can get any cell phone ring tone or wallpaper for free...

http://www.myxer.com/

Usually, free ringtone websites are trash, but this one isn't. You can take any MP3 or image from your computer and turn it into a ringtone or cell phone wallpaper and send it to your phone for free... You can also browse ringtones and wallpapers other users have created...

(If you don't have a mobile browser with your plan, you might be charged $0.03/kb to download it, but that's the same with any other ringtone) but Myxer's service is completely free.

I have the old L'Oreille Habs goal song as my ringtone, and a screenshot of iPhone's screen as the background on my LG phone.

So, I'm not sure why there is so much buzz about a free ringtone, but now, you'll never have to pay for a ringtone again!
