In post 6, I gave you a guide with the numbers to call. They will help you to add the voucher.

If you are abroad have you actually followed the information on the o2 site

 

Call 4444 free from your mobile anywhere in the world. If the country doesn't allow shortcode dialling, enter *111*# and press the call button. Have your debit or credit card handy and follow the instructions. You can also use top-up vouchers abroad. Or top up online using Web top-up.

 

If not you will need to use another phone and call customer services on +44 7860 980 202 

 

As you have been told this a Customer to Customer Forum, and not Customer Services,...

@James25 Another alternative is to use the mobile top up link @Cleoriff provided and buy another voucher and then use the one you already have when you return to the UK.

NO, no-one from 'tech' works on this forum. We are all customers like yourself. Please ring the numbers I gave you in post 6 on here. They are the only people who can help.

You have been given all the help available, including my Top up guide which gives you all the information we are repeating here.

Your only other option is to call the international customer services from another phone and they can apply the voucher code or use the *111*# number which dials you back

Hi @Perrylove247 - Topping-up whilst roaming can be difficult - have you tried to use the short code

 

*111*# and press the call button ?

 

Some tips in here: Guide How to Top Up (PAYG) - near the end, "Topping up abroad".

Good luck!
