Text stop to 53718 to quit it. You should get a response in a minute or so.
I tried calling 800-351-0915 and got nothing. It was like a dead line.
I called 888-500-7721 and argued briefly before getting a refund offered. The girl on the phone had a bad accent. She was very detailed. She was also polite, but her job is tell you that it is your fault that you signed up for something you didn't want or know about.
I expect that the refund will show up on my bill in a month. If not, I will be calling my attorney.
Having an attorneys phone number for free consults is a great thing. I love having pre-paid legal.

I got signed up for this even though I have no app

I should not be able to accidentally sign up for this service through pocket presses, especially if you do business like you say you do and have double sure options to ensure there are no accidental agreements. Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened.
I've checked to see if I had accidentally clicked an ad in my pocket to download one of these battery saver apps, and there's not one on my phone. If you do business like you say you do, there should be one.
In fact, there aren't any new apps that shouldn't be there. If they attached this and double plus check it, then shouldn't there be oh..I dunno, the app it's supposedly attached to?
Definitely a scam, and liars to boot. Nice.

We use an industry best practice double opt-in to prevent inadvertent or fraudulent sign-ups. Text360 is offered as a subscription service during the upgrade to a battery application that you downloaded onto your phone. The battery application is free, however if you choose to upgrade the application, there is a two step process that you have to accept in order to subscribe to the service. In both steps, prior to signing up, the details along with the terms of service are explained.
We hope this addresses any concerns you may have; if not please contact us and well take care of your issues.
Sincerely,
Customer Service
