I just called O2 customer service regarding my last bill but within minutes of hanging up my phone bleeped (Not a message tone) and there was a message on the screen (not an mms, an actual phone message) say something along the lines of New settings postday. Install? and a yes or no option. I pressed No but the message returned so i pressed yes. It then told me updates had been installed and I now have WAP and MMS (which I've always had anyway)

Shortly after I recieved a text message from number 2030 saying "O2: Good news! You're now set-up to use Wap & Mms, Have fun using them! If u have any problems please call your appropriate service centre. Terms Apply"

I'm a little concerned at this as something doesnt seem quite right

O2 using text speak?
O2 messgae usually come from "O2 - UK" not a number IIRC?
could this be a scam??

You can get the O2 settings sent to your phone from the O2 website
