"What have i just done??"

I got a text saying that its from orange, and that i have been randomly selected randomly to try a promotional upgrade and that i will have 3p texts for 6 months.
At first, i though "yep, con, delete" but it gave me an address on the orange site www.orange.co.uk/3p

So i went to it to check it out, and it all looks proper, so i thought, "what the hell, orange wont con me" then after replying i realised the number on the site said 1118 and the number the text was from and what i had just replied to was 1119...

So i sent a text to 1118 anyway, because it never said "reply to this number".
So far, nothing has happened, and i havent lost any credit.

Have i just signed up for super expensive stupid text alerts or something???

12p was once considered a lot.

10p on contract, but I believe it's 12p for PAYG.

I honestly dont know what you're on about.
I didnt spend 12p on the texts to get 3p texts. You still didnt read it, did you.

to be honest, however credit-less you are, spending 12p on a text to get yourself 3p texts for 6months is actually not too bad.

Unless you had 11p credit.

If i had the 3p thing...
Which i didnt, and i was being charged 12p a text.

Read before posting stupid things.
