However I'd doubt whether he would be able to see that you had started to type a text message. I'm not at all convinced that the phone makes any attempt to communicate with the network when you are composing a new text, only when you hit the send button.
It could well be the case that he was able to see that your phone had registered with the network when you turned it on after you'd landed.
As the others have said - I'd be cautious. |
I'm with Neil on this, I don't believe that anyone without serious kit (not available to most Vodafoner employees) could tell that you were in the middle of composing a text, there is software around that let's people read the text on a screen and remotely monitor key strokes on PC's so I imagine that similar software could or has been developed for monitoring other devices like phones, but this is security service type stuff and not available to many people even in a company like Vodafone. More likely he saw when your phone connected to the network or even simpler he had sent you a text and got a report when it wqas delivered i.e. when you switched your phone on.
If it was the last then it could be purely innocent.
Good luck
