They are an external O2 Partner called LBM Ltd (now known as Stream Global Services) and we have been told by the O2 staff on here that they're legitimate.

 

I would prefer to go directly to O2.

I agree.

Although some of these are legitimate I wouldn't release any personal details especially bank card numbers over the phone to someone who has cold called me.

It wouldn't be a good idea to give anyone your bank details if you didn't initiate the call for anything.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
