Why can I NEVER top my data up??

[Flipoff88]

Not good enough service for what I (over) pay. Better get it sorted soon or I won't be the only customer you will lose. Let me top my data up. My money. Your 'service a joke!! Sort it now. Losing patience.........

@Flipoff88 all ways to pay here and first top up must be done with a voucher https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/How-to-Guides/How-to-Top-Up-PAYG/ba-p/1156408

Not sure why you can't top your data up?

If you are having problems then you need to contact customer services

Just to add. To buy more data now, sign into My O2. http://www.o2.co.uk/myo2 or call 2202 from an O2 mobile or 0344 809 0202 from any other phone.

Occasionally, Web topup will fail - there used to be a limit on how many PAYG accounts could use the same credit card or debit card, so you need a different card for every pair of PAYG numbers.

Also lately I have had difficulty using web topup via WiFi and my ISP from my phone - switching to O2 4G on the phone (turning WiFi off) for the task, or moving to Chrome on  PC has helped.

It can be hit and miss online, @Flipoff88  but as others have mentioned, there are numbers you can call to top-up via phone, as well as vouchers and PayPoint or ATM Top-up.

If data is a problem, maybe you need to switch to a different bundle with more data, again online is easiest, or drop into an O2 store.

Good luck!
