    Someone wants you to call them, you could give it a go and ask them to stop sending you those stupid texts, no scam just someone on o2 with no credit that probably knows you.

    At least 10 today, half a dozen yesterday, more over the last few days. Plenty of opportunity for anyone who knows me to get credit. I wondered if it was a way of getting me to pay for premium calls.

    give it a call but put a 5 in it 086"5"552791, if there's a voicemail set up you'll hear it...might give you a clue, doubt it's a premium line, could be a friend stuck in a ditch with a broken leg that can't get credit, give it a call:pac:

    That no. is not a correct mobile no. All Irish mobiles have 7 digits after the providers prefix. Dodgy, but as Drunkmonkey has advised , if you put in the "5" it will hide your no.

    prefixing with #31# blocks your number
    Putting 5 after the mobile prefix just connects you to voicemail (except on Three Mobile)
