Hi @Anonymous You can top up via this route whilst abroad

https://www.mobiletopup.co.uk/o2

Other ways are shown here Scroll down to PAYG (though only UK cards are accepted for O2)

So use the advice in my first link. It will allow you to top up via Paypal.

Yes unfortunately you need a UK card registered to a UK address. Do you have a UK bank? All other ways to top up are in the link above posted by @Cleoriff including most bank have the facility to top up in the app.

You may be forced to ask a friend or family member to top up for you and then you can pay them back.
