I am concerned, I received a phone call tonight from this company that said they noticed a billing error and are refunding me the total amount that has been charged to my cellular accout monthly since January 2009! They said that they have on record I opted out by texting stop but an error occured and the billing did not get stopped. I checked my bills and sure enough it was there by the taxes. They needed my name and address to send my refund check. Is this just another scam by these horrible people?

In my email exchanges with Virgin Mobile, I have discovered that they are no longer a Sprint reseller. Sprint bought them from Virgin some time ago, and they are now a Sprint subsidiary. Obviously, the deal gave Sprint the rights to the Virgin Mobile name and trademark.

I note that someone posting here received a refund from Sprint. Virgin Mobile tells me that, although they are a Sprint subsidiary, they have different policies. Apparently, one difference is that they don’t maintain the same ethical standards as Sprint.

I have had unauthorized charges on landline phone bills a number of times in the past. Every time that happened, the phone company credited my account without question, simply accepting that it was their responsibility and that they were the ones who should go after the person or organization responsible for the abuse.

Taylor: I’m dealing with Virgin Mobile, which is a Sprint reseller. They won’t give a refund and claim they are unable to block such charges or the messages associated with them. I started getting the charges completely out of the blue. I’d had no interaction with Mobile Messenger and had never heard of the until Virgin Mobile told me who they were.

MMTXTALRT is STILL doing its scam – the above “leadership” position evidently didn’t stick. Is there a new complaint being filed against Mobile Messaging?

I just acquired two of these charges on my latest bill. I called Sprint and they had them removed within a matter of minutes. They also blocked all 3rd party charges to my account.

Just found out something from one of those premium txt messages company .. if you contact your phone carrier and request a “SHORT CODE SERVICE BLOCK” these companies will not be able to send you any 5 diget number to your phone.

I just at verizon store where I just learned of of $140.00 of unauthorized charges to my phone .. all with PREM_SMS AND A 5 DIGET NUMBER for mxtelecom alerts, ringtonetop21721,www.sendmemobilecom, mmtxtalrt,solow.com, 2waytraffic alerts,mbmobile alerts … each charge was 9.99. So i have been going on line to check who these companies are and i have no ideal and never subscribed to anything ..but yet i am getting charged all these fees from these companies .. i call one .. sendmemobilecom and canceled everything and then i called another solow.com and got the same company sendmemobile.com. So i believe all these charges are coming for the same company. i am going to call more to find out if i can find them online but will be using my house phone so that they can not charge me for anything or say that i called them and subscribed. THIS IS A BIG SCAM AND WE ALL NEED TO GET OUR MONEY BACK. THIS COMPANY AND OTHER COMPANIES THAT ARE DOING THIS NEED TO BE FINED BIG TIME FROM THE GOVERMENT FOR DOING THIS TO THE PUBLIC.

Well it appears that you guys at mobile Messanger get a copy of this message; so who are your corporate officers and where are you incorporated at? It appears that it is time to file criminal charges of theft by deception against your corporate officers. Yes you may agree to refund half of the money, by you still keep half the money on this scam! Not on my watch! Yes, it maybe only $9.99; however, judging by all of the post on this site, I’m not the only victim. I tried calling the 800 number and it rings busy. So maybe you’ll respond to this post. I plan on posting this message on every site avaiable to seek a criminal complaint in the State Of Florida. So, if anyone who is in the State of Florida and would like to support my effort to seek a criminal complaint against this company please let me know.

My 74-year-old mother did this in Face Book. She is on my US Cellular bill, which I pay for 100%. I noticed a $9.99 charge on 8/2009 bill and, called US Cellular where they told me after much prompting that it occurred not only in July but in May and June as well. So basically $30 in charges! Then US Cellular told me that I could have this type of subscription cancelled from them from even happening. So make sure that you cancel this on your phone company or the next time you’re in a quiz, it could happen again. I figured out that it was probably a quiz or something as I back out of that stuff when it comes up. My non-technological 74-year-old mother did not. Therefore, she’s punching in numbers for fun! I cancelled the ability for future scammers to bill our phones anymore on 8/24/09. Unfortunately, the 3 previous $9.99 charges happened on 5/21/09, 6/21/09 and 7/21/09. I called the 800-235-7105 number to cancel and was refunded the $9.99 x 3 months from Mobile Messenger. So here it is a month later in 9/2009 with 3 more charges completed on 8/21/09. So, I call back again for a refund and they tell me that it’s their policy to only refund 50% of the charges. Does anyone know where to report this scam to get your $$$ back? I’ll be posting this on FB to all my friends!
