Signal and premim texts

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone. 

Is anybody else having problems with signal again?

Also premium texts costing me a fortune

82344, 88222 and 60555.  Be warned. Anybody else had this?  Text stop it doesnt work possibly down to O2 signal fault.  But its my fault!  How does that work!  O2 needs to stop this asap.  Check your bills for premium messages! Maybe if will all speak up  they will be banned. Speak up people!!!!!!! and letS get it sorted.  I hate scammers soooooooooooooooo mmmmmmuuuuuchhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

O2 cannot stop these, pass the details here:

Check here and report it to O2 if there's nothing showing:

You can't assume just because you have a problem that there is some widespread signal issue.

You are getting premium text charges because you have agreed to their service - Nothing to do with O2 and not their responsibility (nor any other network). Deal with the issue as above then don't sign up to anymore.

It is not just me having problems with signal.  Most people i know thats on O2 is getting random signal!

I hate these companies.  They have no right to do this to people.  I believe that o2 should monitor peoples bills and abnormal activity such as this should be stopped and reported to you immediately.   Or you should be given the oportunity to accept the charges or not before the message comes to you.  Lets face it this company could charge me thousands if they wanted!

That's why they are called scams. If they were honest and upfront about ripping you off you'd never agree to it....

This is true but why do we stand for it.  It shoulld be illegal. I signed no contract with this company.  I have never even heard of them.

Did you read the advice above, as you are repeating yourself.

PhonePayPlus might get you refunded if you use it.

Just lodge a formal complaint with the regulator prople get there money back (confimed in other threads) by doing this and the scammers are fined. Phone Pay Plus is all you need to do
