Text message received saying to “be ready to boss your 2023 bill when it arrives . . . . “ I’ve been asked to activate my online account via a link and I’ve been given an account number. That link takes me to what appears to be a legitimate TW site and invites me to set up an account providing my email address, surname and that account number. I cannot recall ever having an online account with TW before.
Searching here I’ve found posts from 2020 and it seems this is likely to be genuine.
Anyone else received such a text?

I would try going into the site via googling TW not using a link. Just to be sure.

If you don't trust it, and want an online account, then just go to the main TW site via this link.

Already set up account via TW site, rather than the link, although it did look genuine0
