Phat Tonez removes the adult-proof Mosquito ringtone from sale due to waves of complaints
In a PR Newswire press release, ring tone provider Phat Tonez explains why their company removed the teenager repellent "Mosquitotone" from their offerings following the 100th complaint that landed on their desk.
"Teachers have complained that their lessons are being disrupted by every other pupil turning towards the culprit when their mobile phone starts to ring with the mosquito sound.
According to James Winsoar, Company Director ofPhat Tonez- who by the way, launched the first ringtone customising business back in 1999: "Originally we thought the stealth ringtone was an amazing use of mobile phone technology, but we have to square up to our social responsibilities too and therefore have taken the unprecidented action of removing the ringtone from sale altogether".
