    How do you stop meteor from sending silly SMS messages like "You have topped up". D'oh thanks for stating the obvious. It just seems like a waste of time to me.

    Also I have no intention of registering the sim or calling them as I want this sim to be totally under the radar.

    So, can it be done?

    I quite like those because I top up online and sometimes when I don't get the message for a while I wonder have I entered the wrong mobile number.

    If you're not registered with them I can't see any way of stopping it.

    Maybe get a blacklist SMS application for your phone and block them that way?

    I doubt this old phone does that. Thanks for the suggestion. I guess I will just have to live with it. Ah Well. ;)

    Is this the phone you use to call your drug dealer?

    4 months on and dispite texting stop to 50003 many times, I am still receiving loads of spam texts from meteor about their offers etc. Enough is enough.

    Is there any way to stop them for good?
