Hi,

 

So we're trying to remortgage our house with a new bank. I had to do a credit report and there is a default under O2 Communications for £220. It says on the report I had a late payment on December 2022 and again January 2023. Then the account was closed on February 2023. I have been an O2 user for almost 20 years and have never had a late payment. 

 

I have been on the phone multiple times with both O2 and Virgin but neither cam see anything wrong with my account. O2 told me to email the Credit File Refferals team. I have done this and havent heard anything back. 

 

I really need this issue resolved ASAP. The whole situation and the lack of customer service has really made me reconsider signing up with O2 when my contract ends.

Sadly your story is not unique but there is little we can do here as customers.

I suggest you file a dispute with the credit agencies as the next step

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

Hi, I've not got any help I'm afraid but I have a similar issue. Been with O2 for 20 years too, never missed a payment. Did a credit score check with my bank (they use TransUnion to do the checks) and it's coming up with a default back in June 2019 for a random lower amount then my contract that was taken by direct debit as normal that month. Experian and Equifax do not show this default. 

 

Just wondering if the bank you was trying to remortgage with uses TransUnion? 

 

And have you heard back from they as I've just emailed them as I'm currently going around in circles.
