Received the same "Amazing Facts" text from 66662. I've just noticed a charge of 9 on my bill. My mobile provider mentioned they could impose a block on the sender, which they've identified as MX Telecom. Now it’s just a waiting game, I suppose. In the interim, we’re definitely considering legal action against those scammers.

they billed us three quid for a text message!

The number in question was 88870. We replied with "stop" and received a text confirming that we had unsubscribed from all services. Fingers crossed, as it seems these folks were siphoning off anywhere between thirty to sixty pounds a month!

Earlier today, I added a tenner onto my account, which left us with a paltry £1.73 in credit! So, I rang Vodafone to get to the bottom of it. Turns out we’ve been hit with charges of £2.50 for Love Match messages - five times in one day! What’s particularly baffling is that we didn’t receive a single text, and it’s only because of this odd discrepancy that we even found out about it. Vodafone, however, refuses to take any responsibility, and now we're left with the inconvenience of having to remove our SIM card until this mess gets sorted. We haven’t signed up for anything, and we’re not on Facebook either. This feels like nothing short of daylight robbery!

I've been getting these relentless IQ test questions bombarding my phone, all from an 888*** number, and honestly, it's a total scam! They're charging silly prices for it as well. Apparently, if you text back to that 888*** number, it might stop the charges, but let's be real here - you'll only catch wind of that once the bill arrives, which is a right pain! Just thought I’d give everyone a heads-up about this nonsense.

It appears that my family and I have been duped, much like so many others, for more than a decade now. We participated in an IQ quiz on Facebook, and ever since, we’ve been bombarded with text messages from these scammers. Each time they send a message, it’s costing us nearly £3. I've attempted to opt-out about twenty-five times, yet these pests persist in contacting us. We've effectively lost around £20 because of this nonsense. It's incredibly frustrating, as it leaves us short of funds for those urgent calls we sometimes need to make. Is there truly no foolproof method to put a stop to these thieving blighters?

Have you managed to reclaim your funds? These blokes have swindled me out of six quid over the last month and a bit. Absolutely infuriating!

Just got a rather cheeky message on our mobile, charging us a whopping three quid per text! We tried sending 'stop' to 66662, but that hasn't done the trick at all! What on earth should our next step be? Any help would be smashing! Thanks a million!

Just disregard all the messages, and you'll find yourself unsubscribed from every service associated with them!

We received a message from them that ended up costing us a whopping £35 in just a matter of minutes. Can you believe it? A total of sixteen texts flew back and forth in that blink of an eye, with each one setting us back a couple of quid at £2.50. Quite the hefty charge, I must say!

I reached out to O2, and they managed to give me the details of the company behind those dodgy text messages. Apparently, the call was made to Telephone Pay Plus, who then handed over a phone number. Unfortunately, that number is completely out of service.

Just a quick update. I managed to get in touch with Telephone Pay Plus, the regulatory body overseeing this company. They shared details about the culprits behind those nuisance messages. It turns out the offenders go by the name "Mobile Messenger." You can reach them at 0800 279 9758. According to their regulations, they are required to reimburse you for your money and cease the messages immediately.

This company has managed to swipe around £75 from our son's Pay As You Go mobile. They seem to think it’s acceptable to charge £1.50 for every text message, and even after we sent a 'STOP' message, a whole load of texts still flooded in, each costing us another £1.50. Our son’s been left in quite a pickle with this!

I'm experiencing the same dilemma. It's baffling, really, given that we barely touch our mobile for anything substantial and we've certainly not handed our number out to anyone or any businesses. Honestly, where on earth are these folks getting our digits from? We haven't signed up for a single thing that would involve our mobile number!

We’ve been receiving unsolicited horoscope messages from this company, and it’s drained our pay-as-you-go credit without our permission. I’ve tried reaching out to them, but I can’t seem to get hold of anyone. It feels like we’re being taken advantage of-almost like a form of sanctioned robbery! Surely there must be a way to seek justice in this situation?

We received a message on our mobile that was charging us a hefty three quid per text! We tried sending 'stop' to the number 62, but it hasn’t cancelled it. What’s the best course of action now? Thanks a lot!
