Hi, Last November Virgin registered my LPOA for my mother, and we requested opt out of all marketing messages. Virgin are still texting and calling her mobile number. It is no longer appropriate for Virgin to contact my mother directly at all, not even with service messages (eg monthly hit spending cap, refreshed allowances and data rollover). The latest one says "Want to make sure you're on the best possible mobile plan? We do too. So we'll be calling soon, to chat about exclusive customer mobile offers just for you." How can I stop this? Thanks VMC9110

Hi I'm also having the same problem (which looks like it's been going on for a long time) and would like to stop receiving these service outage updates via text for broadband / TV. I don't have a Virgin Mobile account. I evn tried blocking the number and the texts still get through.
Please can you help me resolve this? Thanks
