Just wondering if anybody else has had any problems like below:
It started when I received an odd text from 07378 903141 (a company called Shopsafe) at the end of last month giving me a pin and telling me to ignore the message if I didn’t request it.
Shortly afterwards I received a text from 66299 (getfitcoach.co.uk) for which I was charged £4.50.
At this point I should make it clear that I would never sign up to any premium texts (or indeed any regular text service) - in fact, I rarely even use my mobile phone and only have it for emegencies. Also I have no interest in fitness web sites.
I phoned id & they gave me another number (and gave me a credit for the £4.50): 0208 089 9319. Apparently I had signed up for this service in June! If that was really the case then it’s odd that this was the first time that they had charged me.
In the last week I’ve heard of two other people having exactly the same happening to them - again they were people who only use their phone for emergencies and would never sign up for any premium texts.
I’ve since done a bit of research and there’s a large number of people online reporting the same thing happening - ie: https://who-called.co.uk/Number/2,66299
Anybody else?
