Hi,

It's been days now that I have tried to contact O2 customer service without success. I am currently in Europe and I am not able to access data from my phone. Before the switch from Virgin to O2, my (same) mobile was fine and I could access the internet from anywhere in Europe. Since the switch, I am not able to.

I called some months ago O2, while in the UK, and they assured me that there was nothing they had to do with this. But then why I cannot access my data? I have enabled the data roaming, and followed all their instructions, but it's not working.

 

Any idea?

 

Also, how can it be impossible to speak with a member of their team for days? Shocking...

These are some tips to try :

  •   Reboot phone.
  •   Manually search for a different network
  •   If using an iPhone, change data apn to  mobile.o2.co.uk
  •   Call customer service to check for any roaming bars
  •   Or if you message O2 using the social media links below, they should be able to help you with this

Thank you @jonsie. And what username and password should there be in the mobile data APN settings?

ust leave all the other settings as they were and just change the APN to mobile.o2.co.uk instead of idata.o2.co.uk
