    has anybody been plagued by this company? They text you and if you open it they bill you. If you cancel they still bill you. they prey on kids that text. I have tried to talk with my provider. They blame it on the kids. Kids that text will open messages no matter what. Opera bills Sprint, and Sprint passes it to you. This company had an US office, but they are unreachable. Any tips or pointers would be of benefit to many. Thanks. These people are :censored:

    Hmmm, how about disabling texts on the kid's phones?

    with many providers if you reply with a text saying stop, they will stop billing you. i don't think it really matters if you open the text, if your getting it in the first place.... your probably already in trouble.

    Here's a flash! You don't need to open a text message to be billed for it! Just receiving it you've already "bought" it.
