We can't but if you call 202 they will be able to help. I would guess they are premium rate texts. Competition entries or game show voting etc....

Perhaps O2 were having a bad day! slight_smile

 

It's not easy to guess the answer unless you tell us a bit more.

If the texts are coming from a shortcode number check it PhonePayPlus.

 

If you are being charged for sending texts let us know the number you are sending them to for further advice.
