Having given my son a good telling off when he came in, to be told he had not downloaded ANY stuff from them. So back on the phone to Jamster, and they are going to send a cheque to me to refund the money. I hope it actually comes. So no, NOT my stupid son, just a bloody rip off!

got my money back today after ten days

I also have recieved 12 messages and cant stop it can someone help? or what can i do to stop it and get my money back?

If you have a problem with getting text messages costing you £1.50 x3 - simply call jamsters number 0870 1213186 and explain that you want to cancel the subscription and they will immediately cancel it with a confirmation text.

I've recieve 3 x Texts on 7/12/11 then a nother 3 x text on 14/12/11, same again on 21/12 and 28/12
all charching me £1.50 a text how can I get my money back, and how do i stop it

BE AWARE. They send 3 texts at the same time each for £1.50. My daughter bought a ring tone from them months ago and ever since £4.50 every week.
Call them NOW, they 'say' they will send me a refund, we shall see. If they are under 16 its illegal anyway.

My son got text messages from this number and was charged £1.50 per text message received from them costing me over £35.00. This should simply be not allowed by this company and get away with it.

thanks for the advice. have contacted them and hope to resolve the matter in the same fashion

Is there anyway that I can stop getting message from this number?

I only noticed I was getting these 3 in a row at the same time £4.50.
Haven't a clue who who sent them.I paid to receive them

just rung up that 0870 number and they are sending me a refund ..thank you for your help

I've just found 5 x £1.50 premium text received items on my mobile bill. Thanks for the tip about stopping it. What a rip off.

getting charged £1.50 for text received from 700034153 does anyone know how to stop it and get my money back.

Plenty postings above if you read them.

£22 charges in texts from this company that I cannot see or find out who they are. A complete scam. How do I stop this !

Thanks to whoever did the original research and posted the number.
Same story here, 13 y/o daughter hadn't downloaded anything - it's a con, only just legal but highly unethical. Call 0870 1213186 to complain if you have a child under 16. Tell them they didn't have your permission therefore any 'contract' is void. They now say they're refunding the lot via cheque.
I found Virgin quite helpful too and they also offered to refund half the amount as a goodwill gesture - I didn't complain to them, just asked for help and asked them to consider a service (similar to banks) that picks up unusual billing activity like this and sends a warning text.
Virgin say they pick up mobile numbers anywhere they've been published online, so watch your kids on social networking sites etc.
Will be giving daughter another lesson in mobile use tonight...
Good luck to everyone else on here.

Just to say thanks to the very helpful posters on this thread.
I found £54 had been taken from my son's (11yo) phone since he signed up to Jamster in Feb without realising what he was doing.
I called the help line quoted in many posts above [0870 1213186], got a very friendly and helpful operator; the 'service' has been cancelled and the phone's number barred from signing up again.  When that sounded like the end of the conversation I noted the contravention of the Ts&Cs as my son is less than 16 and no-one had asked me, the bill payer, and that I'd like a full refund. I was offered initially £49.50 but pointed out the total sum owed was £54 and was immediately told that a cheque for that amount would be sent to me. They asked for my mobile number should this need further discussion and I asked for and was given the operator's name and badge number.
I was expecting a hard slog against a bunch of rip-off artists and had a very pleasant and satisfying conversation with an efficient operator,.

Hi all....just called T-Mobile after reading the stuff on here and complained saying that how can they allow my 15 year old daughter to get theses texts. The TMobile lady said she has put a block on all 3rd party numbers and she also put a credit on for £9.00 onto my account.

Result.....

Just had a very similar experience to Torben, in my case it's one of my Grandaughter's whose mobile I pay for, she is just 15 and profoundly deaf, so texting forms a big part of her socialising, not too sure how she got onto this but probably via Facebook or similar, I only spotted the 700034153 number on her bill today and it added up to £22.50, I have been promised a full refund by cheque, will keep you posted, thanks to all on this thread as I wouldn't have known what to do without it.
