Buddy Loans
Hope someone on here can advise me?
I have been receiving unrequested texts from a company called buddyloans.co.uk. I haven't requested any loans so they have gotten my mobile number from somewhere else (and yes, I know about caution putting mobile number on line etc). The company has texted me from about 6 different mobile numbers. I am putting a block on them once received, but that is after the event - I don't want them texting or contacting me in any way shape or form whatsoever. I have spoken with my mobile phone network (EE/Orange) and they were unable to help - they can't block the numbers as the messages come from different numbers.
What can I do to stop this nuisance texting? Can the FSA ombudsman help?
I have searched for buddyloans.co.uk, but that address takes me to a company called loanB4Payday.co.uk. I have emailed their info email with a frankly blunt email telling them to stop texting me, but the texts are still coming in.
What can I do? Is there anyone I can report this to who can help? Why should I suffer a nuisance without any access to recourse.
Hope someone can help?
Cheers

Its not something the FSA can do.
Use google and search for how to stop spam texts on your network.
Maybe register with tps too.0
