Hi @Anonymous Have a look at this guide. There is a link to report them to Phonepayplus who regulate scammers. https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Pay-Monthly-and-Pay-Go/Have-you-fallen-for-or-been-conned-into-a-premium-rate-scam-What/td-p/968023

You may have inadvertently clicked on a link via FB...and signed up for something?

There are no free shopping vouchers or free iPhone to be won on Fb. They are all just scams to get your details

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.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)
