Hello

From 25/7/25 60110 (Competitions) texts are charging me 1p, previously free for 22 months. 

I’m on the £10 50 GB monthly plan.

Anybody else the same?

    Most networks charge standard rates for shortcode texts so looks like you've been lucky for a while!

    Quite a bargain when EE themselves charge 21p for them.
