Hi Gerry,
O2 send that text because if you sign in via their own mobile data network, you are then already verified automatically after clicking the link that they have provided and taken straight to the My O2 mobile webpage rather than the application. It just gives you more ways to easily view your bill online 
Hope this helps.

Thank you @Anonymous for such a quick response. So if I understand you correctly - to give me MORE ways to view my bill online O2 instructs me to TURN OFF an alternative way (which in my case I find much easier and just as effective on mobile phone)? 
That's the general gist of it yes.
What if WiFi wasn't available and for some instance you forgot your PIN code for the MY O2 app and you're too much in a rush to go through the password reset rigma? It's effective but not necessarily essential

Most of the texts that o2 send out have been written by people on day release from various institutions probably sometime in the distant past when government regulations allowed such social activities.

I understand that @Anonymous . In my experience though it is much more likely that WiFi will be available than a network connection for data!
@Anonymous That's exactly what I do too!
