I was away out side the EU area over the last several months. I had opened my O2 phone few times just to get numbers from the phone and to check a message was sent to me.Although I made sure that the mobile data is off and I was only using the Wi Fi unfortunately I was charges for sending international message. I am sure I did not send any messages.

If you have an iPhone or an Android phone with visual voicemail active, the phone will send silent text messages to register for services each time it is turned on.

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.
