Got a text from 1150 saying thanks for being with orange for a year now, to celebrate have £5 free credit added to my account, I just have to reply yes to this text.
This seems to me a bit of a scam?
Anybody here have any experience with this?
 
Is it from 150 or 1150?

Edit: I work for them, If it looks bad (wrong punctuation etc..) it's more than likely spam. Could you forward it to 7726 please? It's free to forward it - it's our anti-spam collection number.

1150 which makes me think that's a bit off. I'm just wondering if it's a scam, not really bothered about getting £5 really on my account.
 
Hi aceface57

On the anniversary of a customer's connection to Orange, we will often contact them to offer something to say thanks for being with Orange.

The number 1150 does show on our system as being used for Orange Marketing Messages, but if you want to make sure, the easiest way is to call Customer Services who will be able to see a note on your account confirming the offer which was sent to you.

I hope this helps.
