Really need some help. 

 

I have a new sim and was told my old phone number would be transferred over to the new sim. Unfortunately the new sim is not working, I have absolutely no signal and I have an alert coming up telling my the new sim isn't provisioned. 

 

Tried the virtual support but they keep pushing me onto the O2 app. I can't sign in to the O2 app because unfortunately my old account and my new account both have the same email. Whenever I click reset password, the email is sent to my old account, not my new account. Therefore, I can't sign in to my new account, and I can't try and change the email it's connected to because I can't reach anyone. 

 

Of course, I'd phone O2, but I HAVE NO SIGNAL. I have no local O2 shops to visit either. 

 

I'm going round in circles and it's a nightmare. What am I supposed to do??????????????

If you just have replacement sim or have upgraded you can do a sim swap yourself Guide: Sim Swap: a mini guide 2017 update 

Also, for an upgrade, just use your old sim for now until you can swap to the new one, if required.

Alternatively, you can contact O2 on socials.
Message them on Social Media. Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG

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.

@PlsHelpMeeeee You can use Skype to call O2 for free: Guide: A Guide to Skype 

Call +44800 032 1402

When it comes to the reason you are calling, stay silent for 15 seconds and you will be taken to the keypad options.
Press 2 for Everything Else
Press 5 for More Options
Press 7 for Anything Else which will put you though to someone.
Say 'Upgrade', 'Lost/Stolen', or 'Fraud' if the suggestion above doesn't get you through.
Best time to call is 8 am.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
