How to "delegate access"

cappuccino — Thu, 21 Mar 2024 12:26:46 GMT

So ... for about 10 years I've had 4 handsets on my account

Mine, my husband's, my son's and my daughter's. I was able to view them all via my account.

As of last month, I can't see my husband's. It was removed and when I try to re-add it I get the following :

My husband received a text from O2 at the same time, asking him to set up his own account, which he has now done.

But, how can he give me the "delegated access to manage certain aspects" of his account? Payment of his bill still comes from my account so I really don't understand why this has happened.

Any help and advice would be appreciated, thank you.

Thank you. This did work, but we had to do it the other way - my husband had to be logged into his account and him request me as a delegate. I then got the email to accept, which I have done, and all is good.

Thank you for your help.

@cappuccino

You can do it either way.

The one you start with move to the second one's login.
