I am on PAYG, I've had the SIM/number for years. I only get free calls/texts to other O2 numbers. Can I change to a newer bundle and retain my number?

Many thanks. My wife used to just have an O2 phone so it was never a problem but now she has a work Vodaphone as well and doesn't always have her O2 phone with her. Texting/phoning the Vodaphone number can get a bit nippy!

I'll pay a visit to my nearest O2 shop.

Looking at the text codes, can anyone enlighten me as to what the difference is between 15BUNDLE  and 15DATABB?

Bundle includes texts/calls while the data is just data?

Correct  slight_smile

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
