The problem is that our numbers are out there now, it can't be undone and no apology can suffice.

o2 are denying they did anything wrong and trying to cover it up - they are hoping we will go away if we are ignored long enough.

Oh dear, I only just discover that they have all my contact preferences on...and I have been receiving calls from carephone warehouse regarding to my upgrades in the last 2/3 weeks. Luck now I know what to do.
