I have just received a text from O2-Alert saying:

go to www.o2.co.uk and enter your verification code (which they supplied) when requested to enable you to use text services.

has anyone else had this text? what does it mean? I have just visited the website on my pc and can't see anything relevant or anywhere to put the verification code!

anyone got any ideas????

cheers

Be carefull that sounds a bit suspect. Im an O2 pay as you go customer with a K750i and haven’t received such a message. Can you still send a receive text messages?

Wait on here for a reply and see it other people have. It could be something dodgy and could mess with you phone. Don’t quote me on that but you can never be to careful these days.

Wait and see if other people have, but I certainly haven’t.

Cant see how it can be dodgy if your told to go to the official o2 website? Maybe o2 sent the text before they updated the site?

Sounds like someones tried to register your phone (on purpose or accidentily) and youve got the confirmation code.
