iPhone sending MMS messages

I have a iPhone simplicity contract with unlimited texts. I noticed charges being applied to my account under Texts so contacted 02. They said I had sent two MMS messages which I hadn't. They said they were sent to 000000000001234. It wasn't me so they credited my account for the cost incurred.

Anyone else had this?

Me too

This has happened to me too.

I have an iPhone on a pay monthly contract and I have been charged for a mms message to the same number.

Interesting

Thanks for that. Worth keeping a copy of this post in case of future bill disputes as it will show a pattern and the fact that they are not individual one offs. Clearly the explanation for mine can't be tru as the iPhone locks automatically and you have to unlock to use the MMS facility.

iPhone sending MMS messages

Is it possible that a couple of emails have been sent as mms?
Not sure if this is possible even, but its strange that they are showing as the same reference 000000000001234?

If that is the case, how do I stop it happening. Any emails with attachments should be free as part of my internet connection package. How many bites of the cherry do O2 want ?

iPhone sending MMS messages

I have had one of these last month and already have four of these this month, its a complete pain and takes about 15minutes to explain to the customer services what happening to get a refund which I am not even sure if it went through.

I have only ever uploaded 2 photo's to facebook, 1 to twitter and a handful of emailed photo's.

Customer services tried to palm me off saying they are acccident MMS to random people. I asked her to disable MMS completely for my account and she said it wasnt possible.

They should either disable it on request or offer a no quibble refund if these sort of non functioning numbers crop up on MMS.
Might now be worth bring up with my local trading standards office.
