Can't connect to O2 wifi at my gym - entered wrong number :'(

Hey Folks,

 

So. my gym has 02 wifi, but you can't get a normal 3g/4g signal in there.. No problem.. I'll use the free wifi..  So I turn wifi on - on my android phone. And a little page opened up to say that I needed to enter more information before I could 

 step 1  - enter your mobile phone number

 step 2 - you get sent a code to your mobile phone number and you enter the code.

 

dammit.

  I'm not wearing my reading glasses and I entered the wrong number  in step one,  so no matter how many times I hit 'resend the code' - the poor schmuck who has a number just like mine but with a 7 instead of a 6, is going to get texted.

 

Problem is .. there is NO OPTION to re-set that phone number..  I can't find it anywhere?!  it won't let me go back a step, and it won't ask me for a different number - not even if I make up a random access code and enter it several times and get locked out. 

 

any ideas??

Have you tried going into the wifi settings and 'forgetting' that access point and then reconnecting to it?

Yup.. I 'forgot' it several times..  didn't work.. it remembered me.. even 2 days later when I'd rebooted the phone a few times

Try deleting the app & reinstalling it then start the process again to sign up

There is no app now. You can try going in via My O2 using the link on this page.

i'm not using an app -  it's the connection screen on android   "Sign in to WiFi Network" - which is customised or uses a web page or something for this specific 02 thing
