Hi i just received this text:
O2:We were unable to process your latest bill. In order to avoid fees, please update your payment information via: https://o2.uk.b5g02.com/?o2=2

The number it came from was +44 7487 409752

I am worried because my bill is due but it doesn't say im behind on my bills or anything on my account. Thanks
