I have recently changed my device from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone SE
I have tried to update these details but cannot see how to change the details on my account, I have deleted the device, re-entered the number but there is never a page that allows you to change the device details. Whatever I do, it still list my old phone and IMEI number.

Hi LordBourdette,
I have seen this issue before where MyO2 shows the old make and model/IMEI.
When did you change models? Sometimes it can take 30 days for it to update on your MyO2 account.
I'd recommend giving customer services a quick call on 202 free from your mobile to see if they can update it on their end.

You shouldn't have to do anything, but if it still shows the old phone you need to call customer services to see if they can push the refresh through.
Please note, this is not customer services and we cannot access your account. Do not publish personal details (email, phone number, bank account).
Link to our guide on how to contact them can be found here

Networks can track phone make/model/IMEI through sim card usage. The details should update automatically once you've used the phone for a certain period of time, however, this can sometimes fail.
If your account doesn't update automatically after 30 days then I'd recommend calling our team
Have a great day!

Many thanks
So it should read ..... "Your Device - iPhone SE + (IMEI Number)" without me entering any details at all?
As far as I know, O2 do not yet know that I have have put my SIM into a replacement phone, but I am happy to wait anothe couple of weeks.

Yes, that's right
Give us a call after 30 days if it's not updated and you've logged in and out of the account.
