02 Send A Free Text

Anonymous — Tue, 17 Jul 2012 11:47:04 GMT

Afternoon. I have had this problem for a while now, every time i go on to the 02 website to send a free text, it doesn't work. I go on to the site click "send a free text" and then it brings me to the log in page, i enter my details as i usually would, but it automatically signs me out and returns me to the home page, I've repeated this over and over but nothing seems to happen. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks

Cant say I have ever had a problem with this feature and have used it since when I think the website was called Genie or something similar in the Cellnet days

Hi guys,

Just FYI, I have moved this thread to a Help board, as it is more suited to here.

Many thanks, Toby

This is happening to me today. It is always the same. I have given up trying.

Send a free text returns you to login.

have you sent more than ten this month as you are only allowed to send ten free text from the site each month

There has been a problem with the website in general over the last couple of hours or so.

Not happy about the free text sending online with 02. Used to be ten a day. Now its ten a month. Are you seriouse 02. The amount people have spent with you in the past. Let me speak for almost 20 people here who are all saying goodbye 02 over the next week. All these people used the site message when needed. Now you get ten a month not a day. Not very helpfull at all. Im sure orange do emergency calls and texts as Im sure others will too. Phone and new network shopping for me and many others tomorrow. After years of sticking with 02.

Its not on. Discruntled long term 02 user soon not to be! Raar

Are you sure, I thought it was always 10 a month, the allowances now are:

I have…	Number of free web texts per month
O2 Home Broadband Pro and I'm the primary user	500
O2 Home Broadband Premium (and joined after 18/12/08) and I'm the primary user	200
O2 Home Broadband Ultimate or Premium (and joined before 18/12/08) and I'm the primary user	100
O2 Home Broadband Standard or Access and I'm a primary user	100
O2 Home Broadband and I'm a secondary user	10
An O2 mobile only	10

If you want to send messages beyond your free quota then you can buy them in batches of 30. The price is £1.50 – which works out at 5p a text.
