Hello.

 

I am trying to switch to O2 from ID Mobile. I submitted my PAC on the O2 website but then it declined 3 times! When asking for a new PAC, ID Mobile says NO because the PAC has already been used! Does this mean I will lose my number?

I used to be really impressed by O2. NEVER AGAIN, IF I'M LOSING MY NUMBER! I need this number because SO MANY THINGS are attached to it! My bank account, my NHS services, even my home security! I need help please!

 

Thank you

Update - 

 

Unfortunately, in my opinion, this number is likely to be lost

 

A few days ago, 2 customer service agents told me that the port-in request would be cancelled. However, upon checking with the social media team, the port apparently will happen tomorrow. I am fully aware of British efficiency and it will likely mean that my number will be lost forever due to these issues

 

Is there someone I can complain to?

Official complaints appear to be taking around eight weeks and often customer services won't touch things while the complaint is open

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

I suggest you try Customer Service first; as @Enlli mentioned, by law, they have 8 weeks to sort a complaint. Any action a Customer Service will take will affect the complaint. 

Thanks and regards,
Alexander
