    I moved my number over to @O2 and I can make calls but not receive calls? Decided to contact support chat, 2/10 customer support, and they said it could take up to 24 hours to be able to receive calls? And pressing the complaint link was a 403 forbidden link? Might move back 🙃

    @Al_the_bass @O2 @EE Shocking isn’t it Alan, I’d definitely going to be switching I think. The trouble is I’m a trucker and rely on my signal to use my telly - it’s just so average it’s beyond a joke!

  • StavNico StavNico 🇨🇾🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@StavNico) reported

    @KatiePaine5 @O2 I got an email from them yesterday regarding this change. You can cancel your airtime within 30 days when they inform you of this change. So I called and got my PAC number. Surprisingly it took only 5 minutes to do this. You do still have to keep paying for the phone.

  • Arayner9 Adam Rayner (@Arayner9) reported

    @_ItsTitch @O2 I did this and they tried to charge me to terminate my handset instead. Clueless.
