T-mobile setting SMS.

In the past week or so I've been getting lots of text messages
asking me to reply to them to get T-mobile settings sent back.

Usually 2 or 3 a day from shortcode 34967.

Anyone else get these? Are they official?

Anyone know how to stop them?

Steve.

Unlikely. COuld be scam which installed premium rate number dialler so
whenever you try to access the internet the phone dials a premium rate
number.

Steve,

It's not a scam, but a new service T-Mobile have introduced. 34967
*****s FIXME which is a free service to send setttings to your phone.
It's also used for MMS registration, which was a problem that T-Mobile
had in that you had to send a MMS to be able to receive one.

If in doubt you can can call customer services on 150 (free),but
they've been a bit slow at peak times and I had to wait 10-15 mins the
other day.

regards

Thanks for the info. Do you know if it stops if I reply to the SMS?
Would be worth doing that (it being free and all) just to shut it up.

Not free on my SIM only tariff.

Surely FIXME would be 34963 not 34967
