65333 premium rate

[pd21]

I have tried to stop this premium rate text 65333 through te links - but I don't see a text message to do the STOP reply,  

I have followed several links that have taken me round in circles - so confused... spent over an hour trying to resolve this.  Also, a bit frightened of contacting them directly or another site as I don't want to fall into another scam. 

Is there another easy way?

Please help!   

Thank you

@pd21 We can confirm that the only "service" registered as using shortcode 65333 is Valuestay.mobi.

Don't be afraid to contact the company behind the charges. The law is on your side. They need to be able to PROVE that you entered into a contract with them. You don't have to prove that you didn't. My guess is that they will issue a refund quite readily.
