keep getting texts from dodgy loan company

austin

hi wonder if anyone can help.

ive been getting texts from a company called getaloanfaster.co.uk and in the text it says 'to opt out reply stop' but i keep getting the texts from different numbers each time i reply stop.

have put the website into whois and the address appears to be a residential property on streetview.

is there something else i can do to stop these texts, theyre doing my head in :mad:

cheers

Rusty!

put the codes into PayPhonePlus

Don't text 'Stop', because then they know it's a valid number.

thanks. put the number in, it can only tell me that its a mobile number, and gave me ofcom's details.

latest number they text me with is 07739319356

Ah rats, I was expecting a shortcode.

07739 is (or at least used to be) an O2 code, so contact them and let them know someone is using the network for spam.

will do. if i cant do anything about it then they can expect a load of junkmail through their letterbox in the coming weeks

You can complain to the Information Commissioner.
