Sounds like you have been swallowed up by a pay for it "scam".
Read the information on the links below to find out how to stop it and get a refund. You can also apply for a ban on all charge to mobile methods by contacting customer services.

Good job. All  that info and no edits. On this new forum layout as well!

Thanks.
Was made easier by doing it all on a laptop. Doubt the same would be said if I was on mobile...

I'll let you all know next time I respond to another such query. As you know I only use a mobile.

Well I just replied to another poor soul scammed out of money and I managed to type both websites plus MI5's petition, not without edits, though. But nothing to do with the new forum layout, just my bad typing

Point well made @MI5!
