TPS wont work for premium texts

You only need to pay a admin charge of around £1

This is a government run scheme for prevention of misuse by these companies

Been hit for Over £30 with in 30 mins, posing as PPI sales.
cancelled, sent stop after every call
Pensioner, how do I get my money back

I am going round in circles, I got charged unessary for text messages I received. I then call tmobile who said to contact imimobile, imimobile told me to contact prize to win. Prize to win told me they haven't been emailing me, that it must have been someone else. So I'm going in circles here.

Have just had O2 bill in £15 charges from 82344 O2 have told me it is a text service called - message from sch"...which I never signed up to or agreed - this is out right theft and will be reporting to trade and standards- watch out for message from sch on your bill!!

just wanted to say this number dose not have any one  to take your calls, just  leave a message and they will get back to you? what year or any year  they dont say its ball,sh!! just rip off again and another scum pampany getting away with it. i have lost so fare £ 15 and stll being charged. iam on vodafone they did say they would give me the money back, i will keep a check on that.

The scams are still ongoing as I've just been taken for a ride by these fraudsters and I found this on the web:

Prizes2win is provided by Prizes2Win. Players can contact Prizes2win by phone on 02087980032 or email customerservice@prizes2win.co.uk or by post to The Pines, Boars Head, Crowborough, East Sussex TN6 3HD. Prizes2win provides players the chance to win prizes each week. This is a subscription service, it will cost £2.50 per week until you send STOP to 82344. Prizes2win. The Pines, Boars Head, Crowborough, East Sussex TN6 3HD. 02087980032.

I rang the number and spoke to a rather weary sounding female who said that she herself couldn't help but her manager would ring me back.......didn't state when that would be though.

I intend to ring O2 back and kick up a fuss because as far as I'm concerned it is nothing other than theft, pure and simple, as I am 100% certain that I never entered into any contract or agreement.

I would like people join me to tAke this to press and make them pay back each penny they taken from people. Mobile network providers are also complicit in this. It should become some thing like PPI refund. if we all work together we may be able to win the case of fraud against them

Got 3 messages costing £2.50 each on the same day. Who is it?

prizes2win have sent me a text and charged me £2.50 for doing so.  I never gave them permission to do so and want this stopped and I want a refund.

message 82344 is still being sent and we are being charge.
our service provider 3 advised us to tect back STOP and to call 0844 372 2331
so we'll see.
Information on their address is much appriciated

how to delete this [***] ???

EASY SOLUTION TO THE SCAM
This is definitely a scam, it has affected thousands of people over the years and has made the scammers and their front men (the networks) millions!  If you contact your network they will just give you the run-around and tell you to contact the scammers.  The networks know this is a scam, but are happy to enable the scammers to keep going as they take a cut of the proceeds.  
If you get any unwanted premium rate texts, you should send an email or registered letter to the customer service department of your mobile network with the following text (replace O2 with your network's name):

" I have received a number of unsolicited premium rate texts from 82344.  I do not have an agreement, contract or relationship of any kind or form with this scam company, hence all texts sent to me were sent illegally as per 2003 E-Privacy Regulations.  The money taken from my account was also taken illegally as per the 1968 Theft Act.  Since my contract is with O2 and it is O2 that has knowingly or unknowingly been complicit in this theft I expect one the following from O2:

•    I expect O2 to refund the money illegally taken from my account and O2 to take this up with the scammers.
•    I expect O2 to provide me with a full and detailed audit trail proving that I subscribed for this service and that the money was taken legally.

Please advise me within 48 hours of receipt of this email, which of the two above actions O2 will be taking.  If I do not receive a satisfactory reply within 48 hours I will be making a formal complaint to Oftel, reporting the theft to the Police and initiating legal action.
"

It’s almost a certainty the network will not have any proof of a subscription, they may have details of texts sent or received, but unless they can provide the content of those texts then they can't prove that you subscribed. They will have to refund the money or get the scammers to refund the money (make sure you get a FULL refund).

I did all of the above with O2 and they finally stopped giving me the run-around and got me a refund.  Don't let them fool you into thinking you signed up by accident, or you weren't paying attention, this is nothing but a SCAM.  The scammers buy your number from mailing lists or simply auto generate it from known number ranges.

Hope this helps, good luck...
