HTC Desire - How to stop receiving texts from "50" with area phone code

[bugs31]

I'm hoping someone can help me please as I can't find an answer on google.

I have had my HTC Desire for a couple of weeks but yesterday started to get text messages from the number 50 telling me the area phone code eg. "0118" if I'm in Reading. I normally get 7 of these texts in a row. I can't see any option to stop them and as I travel around areas quite a bit it's getting very annoying.

Any ideas would be great

Thanks

there is only way of turning off cell broadcast message in HTC desire X dual sim is take out the sim from your phone, put it in other phone which shows broadcast message disable setting like any old phones.
disable the broadcast setting, delete all the channels and restart the old phone.
now put the sim back in HTC desire XDS
