Text from natwest??

Hi,
I have been receiving texts from natwest on a monthly basis, this months message is as follows:
Natwest: balance on blue account at 13jul 06:55 is £350.57CR (senders number 35057)
Now the reason I am confused is because firstly I dont have a blue account & secondly my natwest account balance is not the amount texted to me.
Does anyone know what this could be??

    It appears from this text you may have Advantage Blue, check your statements and see if a charge of £6.95 has been coming out each month.

    The alternative is that someone has given the incorrect mobile number when they signed up for text alerts on their advantage Blue account. If this is the case there is not much you can do other than ignore it.

    I would suggest calling MONILINK, who provide the service on behalf of them on 0808 168 2959, and they should be able to stop this for you.
    Best Regards

    If you just want to stop the texts then reply to one of them with the word STOP.
