How do I get twitter to stop sending me hundreds and hundreds of texts?

[greattitle771]

I signed up for the vodafone twitter text thing yesterday so i could update twitter by texting 86444. but after receiving hundreds of pointless texts about turning on and off updates i decided i wanted out. so I texted the word STOP to 86444 as they told me to if I wanted to quit.

Needless to say It didnt work and i have received about 300 texts now from twitter in the past 18 hours. im going insane, pleaase help me

also, might this help?
If I turn Twitter off, will I still get Direct Messages?

Yes. You will receive direct messages if you send OFF only once; to disable direct messages, send OFF twice or change the settings in the device settings page. You will always receive a copy of your message on your web archive, and in your email if you set it up in your preferences.
