Reverse charge SMS bar

perksie — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 16:21:09 GMT

After reading quite a few complaints in the forum of customers being charged for these messages a look around showed me that it is possible for a network to block them.

I'm sure O2 don't provide this but they might look at it if enough people were affected.

Have you received any of these?

Did you reclaim the cost using PhonePay Plus and was it easy to do?

Vodafone provide a blocking service called:

Unsolicited reverse charge SMS bar

so I'm wondering if O2 could provide a similar service?

Ive recieved a few and have always had a refund from o2 but it would be great if they could block them

That would be a really good service. If Vodafone can do it, there shouldn't be any reason why O2 couldn't as well.

I shall pass this on perksie,
Do you know anyone who has used such a service before?

Thanks!
