Have any former Virgin Mobile customers who were moved over O2 been contacted about a forthcoming price rise?
On 21 February I got an email from O2 which started off:
"From April 2024 the monthly price of your mobile airtime plan (that's your inclusive minutes, texts and data) will rise in line with the 4.9% RPI rate. Plus, an additional 3.9% as is set out in your terms. etc
I know we were due one and the 4.9% RPI + an additional 3.9% doesn't come as a surprise.
On 22 February I received another email:
"Hello, Due to a system issue, we sent you a price rise notification which may not have been correct.
We're sorry for any inconvenience caused. We're currently looking into the issue and will send your updated annual price rise communication as soon as we can."
Nothing since. My worry is that the rate I'm currently paying carried over from Virgin is £9 a month - unlimited calls/texts plus 100GB data. I don't think O2 offer anything as good as that. My worry is they'll the former Virgin amount amount to something comparable O2 offer.
Are former Virgin mobile customers transferred over going to see much bigger rises?
