Classic pay as you go

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi

I've just changed to the classic pay as you go tarrif from a legacy tarrif where I just had to make a chargeable call at least once every 6 months to maintain my phone service. Now according to the help and support page for the classic pay as you go I need to top up or add a bolt on every 6 months or my service will be disconnected!

See https://www.o2.co.uk/help/pay-as-you-go/classic-pay-as-you-go.

Surely this can't be correct?

Same rules apply.
Just a chargeable call or text every 6 months and a top up every 999 days.

@AnonymousIt's to ensure you keep your sim active. You need to make a chargeable call/text every 6 months and top up every 999 days...
