Recieving Calls and Text's Regarding Debt Advertising

Anonymous
Not applicable

To start... the phone that i have is in my mums account name. and i obviously dont have the same name as my mum.

(I wasn't old enough to start my own account (I am now by the way) - Awaiting contract end.

 

Who has my phone number?

(alot of people i will accept this, so im bound to get trashy spam.)

 

Who knows my mothers name online apart from O2?

(no one, because she doesnt do anything else online, apart from Bank)

 

where is the only place that me and my mum have an account that links my phone number with her name.

(O2)

 

My suspicions... O2 is selling your details to trashy companies to spam your phones.

 

That is all.

If you're sure you haven't set your account to allow SMS from partners and other companies (worth checking), forward any spam texts to 7726.

My operator, Vodafone, must be sick and tired of all the PPI and payday loan SMSs I've been firing through to their spam number.

By any chance did anyone reply "stop" to one of these txts or click on a link they provided?

Indeed I'm just wondering if others have done. In which case they will be coming for a fair while longer.
