porting from 3 to o2 - no service

Anonymous

Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone can help here.

 

I spoke to a lovely Lady at o2 support on Thursday and she confirmed my number porting from 3 to o2 for friday. On friday I received a message informing me in the evening that the number could not be ported but will complete on Monday.

 

On Monday my 3 mobile numbers goes into No Service mode, and the current o2 temporary number is still the same o2 number. Porting was not successful, so I called CS again, and then now they tell me, he will have to re-request a porting from 3.

 

Questions:

1. Do I need to obtain PAC code again - now that I do not have 3 mobile how do I get PAC Code ?
2. Should not all the details of the porting be there with o2, can CS not simply speak to Porting team and find out, and help me out.

Rant:
Will be days now i feel i will be without phone. not good.

 

Any help, suggestions is welcome please - what is the best next steps ?

Thank you all.

@Anonymous From what you have said of your conversation with O2 CS, it seems that you don't need to do anything. Ports never happen on weekends, so you'll just have to let O2 CS do what they need to do and let the port take its course over the next day or so.

The fact that your old sim is dead means that the port has started.
Have you rebooted your o2 sim/Phone to see if it completes the process.
What happens when you call your number from another phone?

That doesn't sound good..
It appears that only half of the process has been done..
O2 need to contact the porting team to correct it.
It is their responsibility to chase it for you..

Agree, very true.

 

This would be the 3rd I'll be speaking to CS today for the escalation. 

 

So, fingers crossed, third time lucky !

Hi @Anonymous! Please let us know how you're getting on with the porting issue - did you manage to speak with customer service about it and was it sorted for you?
