o2 secruity risk.

The service I have recieved over the last 5 days has been disgusting.

 

I am writing this to find out if anyone has had this happen to them?

 

The situation is - 5 days ago my number was made inactive, I phone 02 to find out my 02 contract number has been transfered to Vodaphone pay as you go.

 

I was then told they are not sure why this has happened without me requesting it, as they researched further I was told that someone either had phoned 02 up to request the change and used my name or there had been a computer/worker fault. either way secruity had been breached or it had been an honest mistake by an o2 worker. (which they are doing thier best to cover up)

 

for the last 5 days I have been told that they will have my number back by the end of the day while they search for the reasons this had happened. 5 days on my number is still with Vodaphone.

 

Each time I ring customer service a new manager advises me that my number will be active in 24 hours, during my lastest phonecall with 02 they have said someone has phoned up  fraudally asking for the change of provider for definite and they have listened to it but they are unable to identfy if they asked the secruity questions! aswell as this they dont log the number it was called on!

 

If anyone has had this happen to them please get in touch, as I do not know what to do and 02 keep passing me on each day.

the message was something like :-

'WispaRed7, please give it a little more time, now that Toby is on board'

no probs if this is what has happened

but will you let me know please ?

..... = ..... you can do it by pm if you wish

I'm going offline now

I'm not sure why that was needed to be sent by PM even if addressed correctly to the intended recipient?

Toby is officially dealing with it - It doesn't need any more from us - Not that we can do anything anyway....
