port request declined for security reasons - notification?

Anonymous

Hello,

 

I just learned in chat the the number porting request I made via the online form on Saturday was declined for security reasons--you'd think someone might have notified me in the intervening three days, so I could try again? This was the first indication I had at all that there was a problem and I don't think I should have to go looking for this information!

 

So my suggestion is that it might be a good idea to send a notification if a request like this is declined.

 

Thank you!

It's always wise to follow up anything by calling CS.

Thanks. But then what's the point of doing anything online in the first place? I do so hate phone calls.

It may possibly be an issue with EE if you were porting in...?

Gosh, well there's a surprise, they've been a right 'mare to get away from.

Possible, even likely. Not had anything from them, either, but that's par for the course from experience. I was hoping O2 might be a bit more thorough with the communication--all the other communication I've had has been super!

On the whole you should find them much better than EE for CS.
