When I took out my phone on contract 2 years ago I was told about the 30% student discount which I was 100% eligible for and can even prove that am Still a student at this minute. 

 

So basically I've been running around like a dafty going into several o2 stores in glasgow to get this discount applied.  However I've just been thrown aside like I wasn't important and then start helping customers who are after a new phone.

 

I've spoke to staff from the live chat and I've still not got anywhere with something which I am 100% eligible for and still am too this day. I have The HTC one M7 the now with my contract which finishes this month. And Am really don't know if I want to stay anymore as I am due £153.07 pence from this discount which the person from o2 store today told me that should have been applied and was told to contacts yous to discuss this matter forward since I've been fighting for this for 2 years now.

Did you ask about this as soon as you realised it hadn't been applied, 2 years seems a long time for it to have gone unnoticed?

Yes, I found out withen the first week of getting my phone about the student discount, Was told I had to go and visit the store with proof that I am a student. But I kept getting told different things everytime and I've been talking to o2 about it for that length of time. It's really annoying after a while.
