Can I Collect In-store Earlier?

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

I am wondering if you can help me. I just purchased an upgrade today and chose the collect in store method thinking i might be able to go and collect now. The problem is, Asper the email i recieved, I can’t collect until Thursday it seems.

 

Do you know if I can collect this sooner? My phone is broken, I use it for work purposes and I can’t afford not to have a phone until Thursday.

 

If I can’t, collect soonerdoes anyone know how easy it would be to cancel my order and just go to the shop now?

 

It’s an emergency. I can’t not be in communication from work.

That is so strange because i even went into o2 the other day to find out howmuch it would cost to pay off my conract in full because i wanted to leave o2

they told me, because i got o2 refresh via carphone warehouse i would have to pay off the phone and whole contract in full ( over £1000)  but if i had goten it in the o2 shop all i would of had to pay was the rest of the contract ...

 

oh well never mind i guess i have a nul and void contract because i shodnt of been able to get it via carphone warehouse tongue

Some confusion here.

If purchased through CPW you have to pay the entire cost which is the monthly amount x by the number of months remaining, so for example on a £48 a month tariff with 20 months remaining = £960

If purchased from O2 directly on the same example you would only pay the handset part off (which is £20/month) so it would only cost you £400.

Hope that explains it accurately ?

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

O2 refresh would mean you only had to pay off the phone To upgrade or terminate.
You don't have refresh if you have to pay both phone and line rental to "refresh "to a new tariff.

Log into MyO2 and it will tell you what tariff you have.

"Only from O2

You can only get O2 Refresh directly from O2. Online or in our shops."
