34130006 unwanted text charged

Mi-Amigo — Thu, 14 Feb 2019 23:58:03 GMT

I am a new 02 customer and new to this forum

I recently had my initial bill and noticed charge for supposed subscription to 34130006 which I did not request and for which I was going to be charged.

I contacted 02 customer services on 02 Chat and the person I chatted with was vey helpful and as I also had a problem with accessing sim messages 02 would send STOP to company for me.

I since got access to the sim and sent text myself as well.

Tonight I noticed the brilliant and helpful posts on this 02 Community and following the advice spoke again to 02 Chat and have had Bar to all Direct-to-Bill.

Thanks guys for the advice.

I hope others will find this useful as I am such a technophobe and did not know how to resolve this.

Hi Bambino

Yeh problem resolved very quickly and efficiently - so praise from me to 02 customer service.

I checked out your website and totally agree with your comments about these companies getting away with sending unrequested so-called subscription and charging the unsuspected for it.

@Mi-Amigo Just to clarify, it's not my website. It's the hard work of another community member.
