Sim

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have had my phone replaced by carphone warehouse because it was broken and accidentally left the sim inside and so it has been lost. I have recieved a new sim and would like to transfer my number from my original sim to this but in order to do this i need to enter a code online which is sent to my number. How can i get around this problem??

Call customer service from another phone or try live chat http://www.o2.co.uk/contactus

You can also do it in store if you have one nearby.

@Anonymous As @MI5 has said, either call Customer Service or alternatively you should be able to get a new sim in an O2 store. If you have one nearby, make sure you have your account details and sufficient identification with you.

If you reported it to customer service as lost they should have sent you a replacement sim with your own number already provisioned. Then it would have been a simple phone call to activate and remove the bar on your account.
