All reported instances are investigated, but the issue is that they spoof genuine numbers so very difficult to trace.
Block the number and report it free to 7726.
DO NOT follow any links or enter any information.

O2 never text from a mobile number.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
