88440

I’ve received a text from a no caller saying”wanna take out a loan? [Link] Opt out by texting stopsl to 88440”.

I have no idea how to stop it, attempted to block the 88440 number, but it automatically gets unblocked again, this is just going to stress me out. I’ve also reported it to 7726, but I’m not sure if that will even do much of service to stop it.

Hello @Daveyy

Welcome to the community. 

Does the text say what company it is from?

When entering the text code I have found some contact information. 

Please look HERE for more information.

Our customer care team can also apply a charge to the account bar to stop any charges on your EE bill.

I am getting these texts too. It says that they are from Go Solar. 

Will I get charge if I send a text to 88440 to STOP?
