Been charged 2.50 for a text message I received ?

willhub · 21 Nov 2018 at 20:36

I received a rabdom text message from a number 88130 about updating vehicles MOT, I don't drive, I didn't click any links, yet I get a charge ??

Seems odd that I got this message not long after getting into Germany. How has it charged me and anyway to get my money back ?

It's perfectly normal, it's a registered office not the address of the business. When I had a limited company the registered address was my accountants address (along with hundreds of other companies).
