82288

Ring03332027722 DO IT NOW ask for some one called woodall .I hopefully am going to get  £18 back eventually, and report them to the regulator  good luck

It is a scam  if you send stop they get the number but stop does not show the best way is to ring 03332027722 and ask to seek to someone  called woodall

I get texts every Sunday which I delete without opening but I am being charged for them. How do I stop getting them?

There are none so blind as can't be bothered to read. In this case, Page 1, 2nd post. Strewth.

hii i received sms from this number as soon as i received my balance gone off. i didn't even open the sms, so i want my balance refund i had £11.96, but now its £7.32 . i want my refund £4.64. my number is 07922334918

had an on going problem just rang them on 0333202772. they said as a goodwill they will send me £18 by the post office. said i will get a tx of the post office in 28 days too collect it, hope its not another scam

I was looking at Asda website and a pop-up appeared. I clicked on it and all of a sudden I was receiving text messages from 82288. The only way to stop was to text STOP which I did but I am still receiving them and they would be taking money from my phone but I don't have money in and don't feel I can put any money ony phone as they will take it.

A scam it would seem for certain. Never applied but said charge 4.50 £ a week. Why do mobile companies allow such scam. What is the Governmenr doing.

... nothing. Somewhere along the line, either you or someone using your phone has clicked on a pop-up or entered a "competition", so they'll charge you and keep on doing so. Stop complaining here, get onto the source as outlined previously,or you'll still be paying a year from now for your error.

Hi there,
BEWARE
I was told that they would refund me via text with a code to take to the post office. The problem is you have to leave their number unblocked with your phone company to recieve the text. And I have since received another charge for £4.50 even after I had texted STOP and spoke to 02!!

I rang the competition Customer Care team on the number they give on the text and I was told that the additional charge had already been called up prior to Texting STOP and that I would have to take it up with their Management Team via email. So far no reply and no refund either :-(

Because I have sent 2 emails to the Management team that have gone unanwered I called the The customer care team back, only to be told they can no longer deal my refund claim because I have taken it above them and I will just have email management again ...... This is the only way I can now contact them and they do not reply to their emails!
The guy I spoke to at customer care was really rude and terminated the call.

I'm worried that the texts telling me I have signed up will cost me money how can I assure it won't?  Or at least make them stop I have sent a text saying stop

Thanks Benjamin I've just phoned the people off that number and they have supposedly taken me off the system,I too have been paying the premium rate texts.

Started receiving these unwanted texts in July--I never signed up for anything so just deleted them.  Only found out last night that it was charging me £4.50 a go and I have now lost £87.19 as a result.  EE apparently gets a cut out of this, but have refused to compensate me.

I am being charged £4.50 for premium rate texts and queried Vodafone on it.  I don't know who they are from and all Vodafone would say is that it is from 82288 and I need to Google who the number is.  At first they refused to do anything about it,and said I must have signed up for something.  I started to receive texts with the Lotto results (though I don't and never have never played). I delete the message and have never knowingly agreed to anything, but this is the only thing that I imagine it could be.  After my third call, Vodafone gave me the 0333 202 7721 number to call and agreed to put a block onto the premium rate number.  Having researched it, this scam has been running since 2012.  Surely someone can take some action????

Stop I have not subscribed

jay's not going to help you, nor this website, but read bob IMMEDIATELY BELOW his/her post and you'll make progress

I entered competition in Argos then i got a text saying going to take £4.50 per week i tried sending stop but it does not work so i rang the company the phone number is with the text they send you.I spoke to the lady and give my mobile number she said it was cancelled there and then never enter a competition again.

fed up with this number calling me  and me being charged for the calls

I have no idea how this no got hold of my details I don't even remember receiving a text message from them but in one month I have had £22.50 on my Vodafone bill! As yet have not been able to find out who they are, it must be a criminal offence And I will not let it drop to I get a refund!
