From this number: ‭+44 7385 705666‬

With this message: O2: Payment for your latest bill could not be processed by your bank. Please update your payment information via: https://myo2.ref783.com?o2=2


It’s disgusting that during these times that people are still preying on other people. I hope the O2 Tech team see this and manage to shut down their website. The link takes you to the O2 login screen and I found it weird that it didn’t recognise my saved password. I stupidly entered it, I have changed it before typing this, then it took me to a details page. That’s when I closed out and decided to let the community know.

It's a well known scam.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
