Hi,

I updated my contract Saturday and since then, I don’t have any 5G signal and only picking up 3G. I’m struggling to get o2 online also…it won’t let me log in and says it’s sending a security number but nothing comes through.

can someone please call me on ***********

Good job you're contract, as PAYG cannot use 5G anywhere if on O2. By update do you mean upgrade? Do you have a 5G-capable handset? Is 5G available in your area? Is a mast near you down, either through fault or planned upgrade by VMO2?

Best suggestions for you are:

And in case you need to contact O2, as this Forum is not O2 but is a Customer Forum:

Good luck @AaronW.
