Worried

I have just received a text message to say I have subscribed to Voucher Codes for £4.50 a week.  I have no idea why I have received this and am worried that they are going to take money from my 02 account.  I have text STOP but it just said you will receive no further messages.  Can they take money from my account ?  Did try to call customer service but there is a 30 minute wait !!

Yes they can take money but if it's a reputable company they should stop now you have requested it.
You need to seek help from the regulators which are Phonepayplus if it continues.

I saw a link on FB to win some argos vouchers and went in for a competition to win but at no point did it say I was suscribing to anything - what a SCAM!!  I have said STOP to the messages so I hope that this has not gone through.  It's digusting how they get people to do this ?!

Yeah. Scum but there is no such thing as a free lunch so be aware in future.
