Lend us a quid didn't work

Anonymous
Not applicable
I phoned 4444 and pressed option 6 for lend us a quid. The automated voice said I now have £1.05 but when I tried to send a txt it failed because my phone says I've only 5p! Anyone got any ideas on what to do next?

See if you can call 4445 and speak to CS ?
Or try live chat...... http://www.o2.co.uk/contactus

Top up to start your allowances again if you can.

If you can't make a call from your phone due to lack of funds try from a landline 08448090222 or try live chat.

I thought the whole point of lend a quid was so you didn't have to top up?

If you have funds to top up the phone then yep, you wouldn't need to borrow a quid.

I did say in my post "if you can" wink

Perhaps the op was nowhere near an outlet or ATM etc to get a voucher.

Not everyone uses the service because they don't have available funds to top up. People I know have used it to help them make a call , send a text until they can get a top up voucher.
