Account detail are incorrect after port in

Anonymous
Not applicable
I ported in on Friday. Everything is ok with the number texts and data on my iPhone 7+.

The issue is with my online account and O2 app. The temp O2 number is still displayed instead of my ported number.
Also no info is displayed for my tariff or balance. All that is showing is an error message of ‘There is an error, please try later’.

I have phoned support several times over this but none of them have managed to sort this issue out.

Any ideas on my next move?

I have had exactly the same problem and seem to have ported on the same day as you. After many live chats and calls to customer service I gave up and registered with a different email address. That appears to be working. rolling_eyes

Interesting, what network did you come from?

I ported from Giffgaff, which uses the O2 network.

I’ve just done this for someone coming from gg to o2 and sent in the form.
Had a text back within the hour saying the port will complete on the 28th.

I had no problem with the port. It happened exactly as it should. The problem is with registering the ported number in the app and the O2 account, having registered first with the number on the O2 SIM card.

Ah, that will update itself as you use the phone.

If you click the link below does it send a text to your ported number from giffgaff or the temp O2 number?

That link just takes me to MY O2 to sign in?
