I'm guessing you've clicked on a link possibly on social media. Check for possible charges in My O2.

I have looked and no charges so far.

 

Googled the number on text and someone had posted 

 

Long press on text which i did and it let me block them.

 

Before i had been blocking by adding the numbers to my block list.

 

Now i know to do this with texts to block i can hopefully block them all .

 

My list is quite long since the last time 02 changed my preferences.

 

Thanks @jonsie i will keep an eye on my possible charges .
