Does O2 send texts from 07562 001640? I received a text saying my latest bill couldn't be processed; but I'm PAYG. Thanks

It's a scam, just delete the text. This is being reported quite a few times on here. Don't open any links.

Surely the fact that you don't have a bill would give it away?
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Quite, but of course the scammers don't know that. It's just an O2 phone number to them rage

Hello @DerAlex 

 

Well done popping in here to check out possible scams.  It is absolutely terrible that these despicable scammers are trying to get people to give personal information. 

 

Always stay on guard even though you are on PAYGO.   

 

Best wishes stay safe and welcome to the o2 community forum -- TALLTREES Welcome
