The easiest way to get this resolved is to call into an O2 store if you have one nearby and they'll activate your new sim. Be sure to bring photo ID with you.</P><P>Alternatively you can download Skype if you have no phone to use <LI-PRODUCT title="Guide: A Guide to Skype" id="Guide075"></LI-PRODUCT>&nbsp;and call&nbsp;customer service on 0800 902 0217 or 0800 032 1402 to get your sim activated.</P><P>You can also reach O2 via social media:<BR />Facebook (<A href="https://o2uk.co/O2CFB" target="_blank">https://o2uk.co/O2CFB</A>), Twitter (<A href="https://o2uk.co/O2CTW" target="_blank">https://o2uk.co/O2CTW</A>), or Instagram (<A href="https://o2uk.co/O2CIG" target="_blank">https://o2uk.co/O2CIG</A>)</P> Thu, 11 May 2023 15:38:59 GMT https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Tech-Support/Hi-I-m-wanting-to-keep-my-old-number-but-it-was-cut-off/m-p/1619024#M33096 Bambino 2023-05-11T15:38:59Z
