Ringtones - Help!

[Jade]

I've just got a text message saying i've subscribed to get ring tones costing £4.00 per week - I've not subscribed to anything...........

It says if you call this number beginging with 0906 you can unsubscribe but I reckon that might be a preimium rate number...

And I havent received any ringtones either

Any ideas?

[Debs]

sometimes you can text back with STOP but it should say that as well?

[Debs]

have you recieved a free ringtone at all? or sent for a free one?

[Abi]

The STOP thing normally works.

Any ideas of the company? You could check out their website otherwise

[Jade]

It doesnt say the STOP thing, i've looked them up on the web and they dont seam to exist and i've not received any ringtones. But I havent signed up to anything asking too either

[Debs]

hmmmmmm!

is your phone contract? or pay as you go??

[Jade]

Its a contract one.

The people called Top Tone but I can find a ringtone site called that. It may be a scam to try and make you call the number to stop it and you get charged about £5 per min or somthing.

[Debs]

yeah probably is. just have to see if you get any money taken out each month. nut yeah it is more than likely a scam.

i got one the other day offering me a contract phone and free minutes etc for £5 A MONTH! and it was a premium rate number

[Jade]

Its mad really, I guess if somthing sounds too good to be true it normally is!!

Will have to wait till I get my bill to see if they have charged me. Might try the stop thing as well.

If stop doesn't work try 'Unsubscribe'

[Jade]

I've found out that numbers begining with 0906 are premium rate numbers and you can be charged up to £5.00 per min so I think it is a scam

Contact your Phone person quick!! Like Im on O2 so I would phone thier customer services... quick give yours a ring and they will be able to sort it out!!

[Abi]

just whatever you do, dont ring the number!
