Alerts4u Reviews 170

Sadly the same as many below. Unknowingly signed up when having to download a parking app in London. Still trying to confirm my unsubscribing.

Charged £4.50 by Alerts4U after I updated payment details on my EBay account, how did that happen…..why are they allowed to trade and get away with it

I've just discovered that I'm signed up to Alerts4U and that I'm paying £1:50 per Alert to a maximum of £4:50 per month. I don't know how I've been signed up to this site, nor how long. Don't forget to check your bank account as you might have been caught like me!!

Scanned a QR code for what I thought was a Menu in a café at the Downton store near Grantham. Within minutes I had 3 alerts at a cost of £1.50 each.
Blocked the number(or so I thought) but still receiving messages.
Complete scam, costs a small fortune and nothing to show for it.

Was signed up without my knowledge when I signed up for a Morrisons supermarket customer card.
Alerts service that charges you £1.50 every time it messages you and £1.50 when you unsubscribe using their instructions.

Reported to Action Fraud. Company Name SB7 Mobile Limited.

I have been scammed by this terrible organisation. I was simply registering for ITVX and from that they started sending unwanted premium rate SMS messages I did not ask for and do not want. Can someone not stop these fraudsters

Downloading Iceland bonus card within a Minute just received this SCAM with 3 useless offers to win a prize and apply to amazon for a free months music.
I unsubscribed via phone and web

scan a qr code in prezzos and within seconds has 3 text messages from this company .cost me £3.75 will call the company tomorrow and ask for my money back

I thought I was signing up to the Active Lambeth app. Instead I have inadvertently signed up for unwanted premium rate texts. These scammers have used all the buffer on my phone contract just before my holiday. They are scum. Can't something be done?

It would appear that while I was getting ASDA app that I may have inadvertantly signed up to premier sms alerts from Alerts4u. I received 3 sms messages costing me £3.75. I can see this has happened others. Please check your website Asda where customers sign up to your services. This can be a costly mistake. O2 advised as well.

What a scam, your company should be ashamed of itself in this economic climate!

This is scam, has does not alert you what is happening I thought i was downloading tesco app and the next thing I get texts from this with zero time to try and stop before receiving texts at £1.50

Should be stopped

I have been informed by my mobile provider I am being charged £6 for receiving premium texts from this company 😡 The only connection is from trying to get the asda app. Does anyone know how to get the money refunded? I am raging this is allowed to happen

Scammers charging £1.50 each text despite unsubscribing. I got scammed after innocuous Boots.com receipt inviting feedback & offers. DO NOT click on any receipt from Boots chemist, Boots or any other. Will take this forward. Now this website is asking for our email to further scamming us!

I thought I was signing up for ITV+ and then found out I'd subscribed to Alerts4U. How does that even happen? Either the QR code app or the QR code on the TV has been hacked. I rang the customer contact phone number that was on the email and they said they would cancel and refund.. if I gave bank details or via PayPal!! Scary. Fortunately my mobile phone provider has wiped off the charge.

Scammers who take £1.50, seemingly rely on your spend cap on your phone being higher, then hit you repeatedly.
Mis-direct you into clicking subscription, should be banned.

Scammed thinking I was signing up for the Lidl app. I am going to report them and pursue my money back. The bosses of companies like this are scum.

Just realised that I am being charged by this company. Now Changed the spend cap on my mobile account to zero.
Since I posted this message I have been in touch with the company and cancelled the subscription that I didn’t know I had subscribed to. As I am within the t/c have managed to get a refund from them.

As has happened to others, I was tricked into signing up for this”service”.
Am pursuing the issue with ombudsman and my MP.

I went to track a parcel with Hermes put tracking no in and clicked submit it then went to next page where it asked for my email and phone no and suddenly I’m subscribed to Alerts4U, have cancelled but don’t know yet how much I’m going to be charged
