My son has had lots of unlawful charges on his phone bill. How can I get my money back?
Again another person that has fraudulent transactions through this company on there mobile phone bill. Mobile phone company told me to get in touch with them, have done so and just keep getting told to send them a crime number. I have asked them repeatedly if they can give me some evidence of of the the text messages of confirmation I was supposed to have recieved through all these transactions and now with questioning seem to be getting ignored with them! I have contacted the action fraud team who actually do seem interested!
SCAM ! Fraudulent charge of $109.00 on our mobile phone invoice. From what I see hear many others have this experience. I want to be refunded immediately. Reply with how we can get this done asap
I received 5 charges on my o2 mobile phone bill from Boku totalling £91.95 that I did not recognise. I contacted Boku who informed me that my mobile number has been used to make purchases to Sony Network Entertainment Limited. I understand these relate to charges for Sony Playstation games. Boku told me "The customer must authorize the transaction by either replying with a keyword or entering a PIN number before they can be billed". This did not happen. The first I knew about this was when I received SMS messages thank me for my payment. I was never asked to authorise the transaction by a keyword or PIN. The payments were applied to my o2 bill without my knowledge nor authorisation. It is ridiculous that seemingly anyone can make large repeated payments to your mobile phone bill without any knowledge. I see that I am not the only person in this situation and will be contacting the Director of o2 in an attempt to ensure that this fraudulent company can no longer bill o2 customers. The company have so far refused to provide me with a refund, so it looks like I will have to issue legal proceedings against them.
Charge for a $129 from this Boku company that we have never heard of. The company seems to have no way of actually contacting them, after they have scammed you, with exception they seem to answer quick on here. Seems this scam has been going on for months. Next to no help from Telus on this either.
total scam my son has been getting text messages and now sees charges for over 100 pounds to this company that he has not even ever heard of, his phone company will not refund him and it has been reported to the police
I got a $70 charge from Boku on my phone bill. Ive never used it, i dont even have data on my phone. I tried contacting them on thier website, they say "send a code", never got a code, never used this scam company in my life.
