I was on the phone for 1 hour 17 mins trying to get through to Payment Management because I'm currently not working. Only to be told that I have to call a different number. 😡
The number I called was 0800 902 0217 - THAT IS THE NUMBER THAT IS CURRENTLY ON YOUR WEBSITE TO CALL PAYMENT MANAGEMENT!!!!! Look it up! It is also the number I was told by an agent a couple weeks ago to call. I wrote it down.
If you changed the number then put that on your website, obviously. You people need to get your act together. Jeez! 😡😡😡😡😡
I'm now having to redial the number over and over and over and over again, being bombarded by useless automated jibberish and useless texts with info I already know, then getting hung up on. Come on!.....

Sorry to hear your difficulty.
We are an o2 community forum and try to give the best advice possible which has been provided to us.
These are exceptional times, more than frustrating. I too like to get my problems sorted out quickly, best way.
The only thing to add is when you can, call customer services early in the morning 08.00am. This may give you a better chance to get an answer.
Best try and get an o2 operative even though terrible experience. Sympathy for the o2 operatives too, it's not their fault bless them and all who are working through unprecedented times.
Good luck and welcome to the o2 community forum TallTrees

FYI
Just spoke to an agent. She said that they are now telling customers who need to contact payment management to dial 0800 325 302, and NOT to call 0800 902 0217.
I know that this is not what it states in all other info, and I did bring this up with the agent.
The reason I was given is because, due to current circumstances, they're have the main customer service team deal with requests to delay payments.

Thanks for the update, @Funktofunky.
Did your issue get addressed after the wait?
@Martin-O2 @Marjo Can the number be updated, please, in this guide?

It'll do for now. Thank you. I know that businesses have been thrown into the deep end with all that's happening. I spent over 2.5 hours on the phone in the queue for Curry's the other day.

Hey guys,
I've checked internally about the payment management phone numbers just in case. Thanks for tagging us @pgn !
The number 0800 902 0217 is for Payment Management. When you call it will ask for your O2 number, then puts you through if possible (as you know it's super busy at the moment so if the lines are too busy, it will beep twice and drop and you'd have to try again later). The other number 0800 032 5302 takes you to the payment line to make an actual payment. It then takes you through the IVR as normal if you need something else.
Hope that helps clarify the difference between these numbers.
