Did you know that if you get a spam text, you should forward it to 7726 (SPAM) so that your provide can look at blocking the texts? I didn't, but I do now. I hardly get any of the annoying PPI texts, but Mrs T gets loads.
Apparently it works and gets them stopped, I shall report back.

This is a good page for attempting to get rid of all kinds of junk (except the stuff you put in your bins, collected every other Wednesday): http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/phones/no-more-junk
