7 yearsDid anyone face charges after dealing with this kind of thing? Just wondering how folks managed the situation when it happened.7 yearsI got a verification code out of the blue, then not long after, I got a text from Magic-Discounts, number 62150. Tried ringing their customer service but all I got was an automated reply email. Sending a ‘STOP’ text would have charged me, so I wasn’t about to do that. I then called my network provider, who helped me set a £0 limit on extra charges beyond my usual bundle, so these scammers don’t make a penny off me.7 yearsThe only kind of magic happening here must be at the queen’s palace!7 yearsI gave them a ring to stop the service, fingers crossed they actually process the cancellation.7 yearsThanks for the tip! I'd also suggest filing a complaint with the Phone-paid Services Authority (PSA); they're the UK body that oversees content, services, and goods billed through your phone bill. It's really helpful to get them involved in cases like this.Phone - paid Services AuthorityPSAUK7 yearsIf you get unwanted premium text messages, first tip off your network by texting 7726 (Vodafone users might have a different number for this). Then ring up your provider and ask for a refund. Should they say no, you're entitled to take it further with their Ombudsman. Don’t forget to notify the ICO through their site as well. Plus, if any firms are named in the texts you keep getting, drop them a line to warn them their name’s tied to dodgy messages - they might not want that bad press at all.VodafoneICO7 yearsThis number charged my girlfriend £1.50 without asking her first.7 yearsGot these random messages from FreeMsg saying I’m signed up to Magic-Discounts charging £1.50 each alert, up to twice a week, until I text stop to 62150 SP:Bazzards. Tried to just block and delete them, but they keep popping up. Anyone else had this? The support number they gave is 01144075163 and email is Support@bazzards[###]. Totally annoying!FreeMsg7 yearsGot a message out of the blue asking me to verify a code, never signed up for anything like that. Then, shortly after, got another text from 62150 saying I was signed up to some Magic/Discounts deal, charging £1.50 per message, up to twice a week, unless I sent stop to 62150. They included some contact details too: SP:Bazzards Help?01144075163 Support@bazzards[###]. Honestly, I’m not bothering to respond, just blocked the number straight away.Magic7 yearsgot a message from Verify containing some code i never requested! then pretty quick after, another text popped up from 62150 saying i signed up for Magic-Discount and to reply STOP to opt out. I'm hesitant to reply tho, since ive heard folks get charged when they do.Verify7 yearsGot a message about signing up for magic discounts, which I definitely didn’t. I replied with STOP, but they still took £30 from my account!7 yearsGot a text from 62150 and a number 01144075163 about Magic-Discounts saying I signed up, which I definitely didn’t do!!! They gave me a reference code but I never replied. Somehow I’m now enrolled. I texted back STOP ALL and fingers crossed I won't get billed. I'm gonna complain to 3 network if anything happens.7 yearsGot a text saying I'd signed up for Magic Discounts, which I definitely didn’t. So I replied with STOP and now I’m just waiting to find out if they’ll start billing me for it. It’s really frustrating to get these unwanted messages out of the blue.Magic DiscountsSTOP7 yearsMagic discounts charge up to £1.50 for each alert, and they won’t send more than two alerts a week.Magic7 yearsThey charged me £1.50, but said to text STOP if I wanted to cancel.STOP7 yearsThis number popped up as the contact for a premium SMS service I never signed up for.
