Any ideas how I get this resolved? I am on a monthly sim-only contract and have added Apple Watch for £5 per month. The status on my iPhone is “activating”. O2 services can’t see my contract online but I have received a contract via O2 text message.

@Vostick 

We’re just customers like you but it sounds like you’ll need someone to access your account which can’t be done from here. If you message O2 on Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG) , they should be able to help you with this
Thanks

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

Same advice applies @joshersratters - you will have to keep on with customer services, either by using social media (links above) or calling 202 or 0344 809 0202.

Please note, this is not customer services and we cannot access your account. Do not publish personal details (email, phone number, bank account).


Link to our guide on how to contact them can be found here

Not normal but certainly  common 

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

did this manage to get resolved? im having the same issue and none of the posts seem to help without "contacting o2 through social media" but majority of the time they wont help by figuring it out directly, its always 'a ticket has been submitted and you will be contacted soon' even though they never contact you back
