same - not sure if that announcement is from the operation doing this or the network that the number is from, Energis.

the number seems to be spoofed, as it would be unlikely that text mesages would come from such a number

Does the message contain any company ID at all? I think Ofcom should be informed about this, as it seems to me to be in the same vein as the extortion and blackmail that put some wheel clampers in jail the other day.

It comes from something or somebody called Truetone.
Thank you for your help.

Today we received another text to apologise for getting us mixed up with someone else and cancelling the ringtone. Great result don't you think?
