Asda Mobile - Can't text 5 digit numbers for charity donations.

I'll soon be leaving Asda's network and have some credit that I'd like to use up. I have tried to donate it to charity by text but it won't work and Asda have told me that they don't allow texts to any 5 digit numbers. Could anyone tell me if there is an alternative number I could use? I was hoping there would be a longer version I could send the text to instead.

It would take me a while to use up this credit and I'm getting no reception at all in most places, so I don't really want to stay with them any longer, but I'd hate to see the money go to waste.

Some organisations have a premium rate 09 number that you can call or a mobile shortcode that you can call, but this is rare in comparison to those that have a mobile shortcode that you can text.

In the case of a call to an 09 number, the called party receives most of the Service Charge revenue. In the case of a call to a mobile shortcode, the called party receives most of the total call revenue.
