I'm on the in inactive pills been spotting lots of cramping but no period is this normal?

Yes, sometimes pills: Can cause an "anovulatory" cycle, which causes soreness and spotting. You can skip the placebo pills and go right through to the next pill pack, and start the active ones. Then you don't have to worry about periods at all after a couple months! :). Still use condoms if you want to avoid std's!
