Last year we wrote an article about this subject of short code programs because we had been personally exposed to this particular scam. We wanted to let people know about Txt Message Short Code Programs, what they were all about and why you should always review your phone bills. Consumers should always review both your regular home phone as well as your mobile phone bill to check for these extra bills on your phone bill.

The reason we got so excited about this issue, is that we were being charged $2 for each text message we received from one company who was using the short code program. There was nothing short about it, only the text number. The cost was high, who wants to pay $2.00 for  a text message you did not ask to receive. In addition, the information provided was for some sort of sports related thing that provided current information, in real time. I never want to pay for this sort of thing , ever!

If you are ever hit with billing for Txt Message Short Code Programs, call your provider and complain. If you did not subscribe to the service, then they will usually write off the billing and provide you with the method to stop receiving more messages. Usually it is simply sending the word STOP by text message to the number that sent the original message to you. However we recommend that you check with your provider to be totally correct.

Txt Message Short Code Programs are useful in some situation such as your carrier sending free messages to you to provide information about their service. These Txt Message Short Code Program messages you will not mind since you do not pay for them. Although it can be an aggravation when you receive these messages, at least you also do not have to pay for each one.
