Hello ZoeBP, please do not make any payments through links you feel may not be legitimate, you can make payments by contacting customer services on 202 from your handset.

Hope this helps.

Hi, I received the same text message from another unknown number claiming to be o2: (+44 7385 578640). I received the same message as ZoeBP. I did not follow the link asking me to update my payment information and I have blocked the number. Should I report this incident in any other way?
Megan.
