From: David Glover on 1 Jul 2006 11:45 Can you be charged for receiving "services messages"? (WAP links.) I just received two of them, unsolicited, from "84966", both advertising "blingmob.com".
From: Kev on 3 Jul 2006 09:27 Hi David, I work for Vodafone and can offer some informal advice. I've looked up 84966 and see that this number will charge you £1.50 for receiving this message. To cancel any subscription with this company, you can reply to this number with the word "STOP" (Must be in capitals). You can also cancel them by calling WIN PLC on 0845 1309911 or you can email them at customerservice(a)winplc.com I hope this helps.
