I have had £4.50 charged to my account for something called “Noatel Europe" I have no idea what this is and have made no such purchase. Can anyone help with what this is?

this is a payforit scam. you were probably automatically subscribed by a rogue website.

 

to help prevent this happening you should use wifi to browse the web when possible as this will prevent websites from reading your mobile number.

I believe the author of that website is also a community member. I will tag @Payforit_Sucks to see if he has anything to add.

@Jane1

Noatel are one of the companies exploiting vulnerabilities in the 'Payforit' system to scam consumers. You need to stop the charges and obtain a FULL refund. For comprehensive (and independent) advice on dealing with 'Payforit' scams, see the link in my signature.
