How do I order a new 4G SIM?

Anonymous

Okay, I'm having a wee problem...

 

I got the text to say that 4G has now been enabled on my account but I don't have a 4G SIM after checking the 4G Setup Assistant 

 

Now...I have been trying for the past 2 months to order a new SIM via the 4G Setup Assistant but every time I confirm my number and phone then click "Order your 4G SIM online" then "order SIM now", I get an order error stating "There was an error processing the sim order. Please contact customer services."

 

I went into my local O2 shop at the weekend and all of the staff were busy, so after being ignored for 5 minutes (my existance wasn't even aknowledged) in a hot store I decided to leave.

 

Is there another page online that I could order a new 4G SIM card from?

 

Thanks

hahaha with trepidation I pressed the "Use Live Chat" option on the O2 website this morning...

 

 

...and it all went swimmingly! Bouncy

 

A new SIM card has been ordered and I've already had two emails to let me know that it was ordered and is now on its way!

 

If I could give Dev the advisor Kudos I would, but instead I'll provide some "A++++++ would use again" Ebay feedback instead! :smileywink:LOL

Hey Papa,

 

Good to hear slight_smile


I'll pass on your kind words and see if I can get them back to the advisor you spoke to

 

Love it when a plan comes together.

Well that all went swimmingly!

 

SIM card was waiting for me when I got home. Carried out the Sim Swap process using http://swapmysim.o2.co.uk/ and about 20 minutes later I was able to put my new SIM in my Z10 and as able to use it as normal!

 

Do I have 4G? Who knows...but I'll find out tomorrow when I pop up to Glasgow to visit a friend!

@Anonymous Are you already on a 4G tariff though?

Just reread the first post and see that you are - enjoy.
