whatchamacallit Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Since when do you get charged for receiving SMS (text)? Maybe it could be one of those subscriber type of service that provides you with information daily... And in the past you may have mistakenly subscribe to the service. If so you can always call your provider to switch it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farma Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The AIS website (in Thai) shows ways of cancelling this service. Or go to your local AIS shop and ask them to cancel the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristianBlessing Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 There are apps which will allow you to block senders, but you first might want to contact your provider. Like email providers, they typically maintain their own black lists. You're unlikely too be the only recipient.

saengsureeya Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Call 1175 and ask them to stop this service. Also go through the menu on your phone and look for "services". If you find a service (e.g. MLIVE), deactivate it. If you find any other service you didn't ask for, deactivated it also.

noob7 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Or go to your local AIS shop and ask them to cancel the service. Best thing, to do! That may not stop the service immediately, but normally it stops he charging, on the spot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raro Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I had a similar problem a while ago. I called the establishment and asked politely not to send me any further spam. Nothing happened. Several phone calls later I threatened them to come over, convert their cocktail lounge into a roller coaster and beat the crap out of them. No further spam sms received Sent from my GT-N7000 using Thaivisa Connect App 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
