Does anyone know whether it's possible to prevent a mobile phone from receiving premium rate text messages?
I ask because I recently received an unsolicited message for which I was charged £4.50, and when I complained and contacted the (rather shady) company who sent it to me, they've issued me with a refund which I'm still in the process of chasing. As I'm very unlikely to ever subscribe to one of these dodgy premium text message services, I was wondering if it would be possible to just block all of them so that this doesn't happen again.
I'm currently with Three, but my contract is up and I'm thinking of changing to GiffGaff. If anyone knows of any other companies who might offer this option (perhaps as part of a 'parental control'?), I'd be really interested to hear - thanks!
