   This is true, and may not matter really if the text is not some   
   sort of scam.

     >spoofed numbers - or won't?   
      
   Yes, I suspect they make a lot of money on those thousands of   
   texts and phone calls and don't block them unless there's a lot   
   of feedback..

   I'm pretty sure my auto-topup gave me 5 gig extra as well.   
   I get 6 and 12 month bonuses but, if I recall, those two   
   were only 250kb + 750kb = 1 meg..
