I’ve been receiving A LOT of texts about Rest of World plans and charges, but I’ve not travelled further than my home or office in the middle of UK and not requested any roaming plans - can I be sure these are not spam, that I won’t be charged and can I stop getting them please!?

Hi ​@Lowruses

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

We're sorry to hear about the unexpected roaming messages you've been receiving, especially as you haven't travelled outside the UK. We understand why this would be concerning.

 

To allow us to investigate why these messages are being generated, please contact us via Live Chat or send us a direct message through one of our social media platforms. Once we've completed the necessary security checks, we'll be able to review your account and determine what's causing the notifications.

 

In the meantime, we'd recommend setting your Bill Cap to £0. This will help prevent any out-of-plan charges from being incurred while we investigate the issue.

 

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and look forward to resolving this for you.
