I thought they already did that on their mobile network?
Quite amusing having to verify your age when you've been with them for 5 years, bought upgrades using a credit card and have a direct debit setup with a bank account. All of which wouldn't be possible if you were under 18 anyways.

Sorry not been on for a long time.
Nice, never before attempted it and I get a message telling me I've tried too many times 😮

You can ring O2 or go into an O2 shop to do it too.
