I just wanted to offer some praise to the CS staff who normally get so much criticism.

I am in Spain. My sim only contract ends this month and O2 have some damn good deals on all the sim only contracts. I didnt want to do it online... so I rang at 9.15am UK time.

The phone was answered in 2 minutes by a lovely lass called Tracy in the Rotherham call centre.

I explained what I wanted.... she brought up my details and within another 2 minutes I had a new sim only contract. I am paying £2.00 a month less than before.

Tracy was kind, efficient and reassuring. We even had a banter about the weather in Yorkshire.. compared to my 18c here in Spain.

To round it all off nicely I have received the confirmation texts from O2... within a minute of disconnecting the call

If @Toby could feed this back I would be grateful. Pretty great response times from O2.. considering I am in Spain wink

So did they just pin the offered tariff onto your current number then. Like a sim only upgrade kinda thing?

This was why I chose to ring them as opposed to doing it online @viridis. The option I was given via MyO2 was to 'upgrade'. Now as I understand it, I wasn't upgrading as such.. I was taking out a new Sim Only 12 month contract as my old one was due to expire.  (If I wanted to be pedantic about it I was actually 'downgrading' to a cheaper tariff). Tracy (CS) agreed that the online wording was ambiguous and anyway it was far quicker to do it via CS.

I will get a new sim through the post which I can just ignore as I already have a 4G sim. My phone and sim remain the same....my new contract has started.. £2.00 a month cheaper than my old one Text to confirm. All good.

I did @jonsie and if honest I could have got away with the 2G tariff. I am 3G now and never exceed it. However, 4G was there for the taking and cheaper than my current one so hey...I went for it...Happy Dance

The offers are only on till 3rd February...but I expect you have seen that?
