Cannot add a bolt-on

Anonymous — Mon, 03 Nov 2014 16:34:14 GMT

I'm on o2 pay monthly and have used my data allowance, but when I attempt to add an extra 100mb bolt-on, either by phone or web, I'm simply told it can't be added, and to try later. I'm given no explanation why. Any ideas?

what tariff are you currently on?

the 100MB bundle may not be compatible.

13. One month minimum term applies.

"O2 Refresh ultd 24M 2GB 4G"

I find it odd that a bolt-on might not be compatible...don't they want my money?

Any other options to acquire data?

Hi there , not all tariffs can add all data Bolt on.Best way to know what you can have is via my o2,as it will only give you the options available to your number/tariff.If it still doesn't work then ring 202 or use web chat,hope you get it sorted

The bolt on service isn't working at present. I called customer service earlier and was told it is having issues. I have used my data too and nothing I do can add a bolt on.
