    Hi all,

    Just wanted to ask if any of you have had a few texts today, one a service message and then a message from 02 saying I had no credit, then when I topped up I received a text from a ringtone company that charge £2.50 per month and then some more money was taken from my credit, totalling £2.50. I tried to get through to the helpline but had to leave a message.

    The text came from 82344


    Hugs to graceandowen xxx hope the problem gets sorted quickly
    Hi Sparky, I got a text from this number earlier today, I am on a contract so can't tell if they have taken any money from me , I have txt STOP, hope this means they can't get any money! Just had reply from the stop txt that says 'the last sevice from the short code requested will be stopped for your phone within one working day' not sure what that means:confused:. was it the 01172050110 number you tried to contact?
