    In school I signed up for a competition from North West Regional College, it involved giving them your mobile number.
    Now I get a text from them about once a month and would like to be off their "list" ant way to do this? I have tried texting STOP back to the number but it does not show one just NWRG where the number should be, can anyone help??

    First port of call is your mobile phone company.

    They will be able to tell you who to contact.

    There is more information in the stickies on how to handle such texts.
