60044

Just changed sim to ID(carphone warehouse) and got a £4.50 extra charge under international calls.Queried it and eventually was given the info that it wasn't international it was a SMS, i never use texts i only receive them from couriers etc.apparently they got in by me trying to get some vouchers online(i didn't even get the vouchers)waste of time trying to get your money back from phone provider,ombudsman is waste of time too as they know about this scam for years and have done nothing.So i have blacklisted that number on my android phone.As i understand it no calls from a blacklisted number will be accepted so i can't be charged.But it cant be right that someone can charge you without your knowledge just by sending you a SMS which you didn't even open. I will be contacting my MP and asking them to sort it out,I wont be holding my breath though as just like in the payday loans swindle they are probably shareholders in the company.

i didn't even sign up for this and I've no idea how they got my number it wasn't until a few days ago i realised something was wrong my mobile is pay as you go 02 and i noticed mt credit had gone down fast last time i topped up so i topped up again and received 2 text massages and my credit went from £15 to just over £5 i contacted my provider who explained what was happening and told me to text STOP iv worked out i have had approx £20 taken in the last 4 weeks and i am hoping it will stop now . these people are thieves

I have tried stopping this subscription before.  But they are eating all my credit.

Please stop this as it charging me a foutune

I have been charged £3.75 for the last three weeks. Just received my phone bill. These are charges from a 60044 number every Saturday. I have no clue why or how to stop it. Help

I have just spotted this SMS message charging me £4.50 a time, contacted Vodafone whom said that I have to opt out or unsubscribe to this SMS message and not just delete it. As far as I am concerned Vodafone should have contacted me to say this was happening and not just let it keep happening. Vodafone state that they do not make any money out of this, which I do not believe!

Talk to PhonepayPlus, a service from OFCOM, and see how they react.    Their site is mentioned just above your post.

I am 80 years of age and been stung for £15 by this company texting me. I'm so upset.

Same here charged £3.75 for what 60044 no again any ideas what to do

u 2 buzy 2 read posts ABOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A very significant amount of such posts are disingenuous and likely to be posted by fake tam.

how do you stop it text stop but still getting them

Unknown reason how this company got my details but being charge £4.00 every week on a sunday same time for messages i dont get

Same as vodaphone appear to be aware of this and wont do nothing and i got told to contact the service directly for a refund

My wife has been scammed by this number as well. Looking at the above posts it would appear that there is little chance of recouping the lost money but for those of you who are more tenacious than we are in following these things up, try visiting Companies House Beta website and typing in SB7 Mobile Limited. This will bring up the Company's details including the Directors. The directors are Jonathan Brown and John Sammon. The address details which are probably company addresses ( They have more than one)  are in Ampthill, Newport Pagnell and Wilstead ( Bedfordshire). By the way they set up another Company in June 2016 so beware !

I texted back STOP. Hope it works. I did not have much in my phone and it cost me 14 pence. do not know who the text is from.

They are complete idiots and these texts had better stop or else i am going somewhere legal about it i am not paying for something i have not subscriped to you con merchants so stop it now or else.My german shepherd dog has got more of a brain than you lot.

I am on a sim only contract but my bill has been £50+ instead of £11 since April .I have been given an email address of claim@sb7mobile.com to claim a refund.Allso they have give me a number of 03301340181

got a text from 60044, unsolicited, on 09/07, cost me nearly £4! how do I stop this?
