Just spoke to Vodafone . Basically , whenever you press "agree " or "allow" then 3rd party companies can contact you in this way . Vodafone have placed a bar on this so that I don't get any nasty bill surprises if I accidentally pressed a button .
no probs with Vodafone . Great service .
I now have to go into my browser and delete : history/ cash cookies .
I suppose it's a heads up if anyone else has experienced this 😼
