Phone 202 from a contract phone or 4445 from a payg(25p)

Ask CS to remove the block.

Stupid question being that you are over 18 are you not?

You shouldn't have to pay any money all you need is proof of age.

Unfortunatly its a legal requirement these days. Good thing too really despite the annoyance.

You pay a pound and it's credited back to you if you do it online:

I walked into an 02 shop and the employee lifted the restriction for me.

I don't use credit cards so was unable to carry out the online uplift.

No I don't use credit cards either.

They unblocked it for me via debit card about a year ago. I don't know why that's changed.

I have received the 'You must be over 18 to view this website' when I click on 'continue' it then says I am already set up to view 18+ websites' This happened once in 2011, four times in 2013, once in 2014 and three times today. They seem to think it's something I've done with the phone?

Adult content is just a joke. It's easy to get around it in honesty. Either credit card details where they don't take the money or simply call into the o2 store. ...
