  • I got my money back from Lotto By Text (Marketing Craze) by cheque today!! I completed a complaint form on line to PHONE PAY PLUS. They sent me a reply with the adjudication and advised me to phone Lotto by Text, which I did, quoting the complaint details and asking for a refund. I didn't hold out much hope but a cheque for £19.50 arrived in the post today. Took about 2 weeks but it obviously works. Very pleased with result and recommend everyone does this.:T

    A quick look around google shows your company is a scam, and you still have the cheek to post on here. Shame on you.

  • Hi Holly,

    I talked to you over the phone and you said to me that you will phone back next day. The next day came, I did not get a phone call.

    I matched two numbers on the Euromillions and you said that you will phone methe next working day.

    I did click the clam button and it said I did not play.

    I only been playing for one week.
    You are such a scam.
    Good bye

I instantly checked out their site, it seemed ok so I texted back with my 5 free lines. It said that after your first week, you will be charged some Euros, but just after three hours or so from my sign up it was deducted from my balance. I searched all through on net for such type of scam and how to overcome it. I found this lottosignals.com which provides every sort of details to come across such situation. [/FONT]

    As far as I'm concerned there's only 1 legit lottery site to use.

    Assuming that the first word of today's message from these sharks meant that it wouldn't cost me to reply, I replied STOP. It cost me 13p :(
