If you think you’ve been the victim of fraud, whether it’s because you’ve given details to someone over the phone, or clicked on a link in a suspicious text or email there are things you can do:
Contact your bank if you think you may have given out financial information. They can help protect your account and stop transactions.
Change your account and online account passwords. Not just your O2 account. All of them.
Forward fraudulent texts to O2 for free on 7726.
Contact Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040.
Call your Virgin Media or O2 customer services number if you think somebody’s taken out a contract using your details.
Virgin Media customers can phone 150 from their landline or 0345 454 1111 from any other phone.
O2 customers can call 202 from their O2 phone or 0344 809 0202 from any other phone.
You can block the number that called you, or any number you think may be suspicious.

Hi Sabu
If Lowell have agreed to delay action pending O2 completing their investigation, then that is progress.
I suggest that you keep chasing the O2 fraud team ; criminal law and the money laundering regulations mean that they cannot update you on an ongoing investigation, but at least they will remain aware that you are awaiting resolution.
Please keep us informed of developments.

As I have already said :-
