Hello

 

I am on O2.

 

I have never been able to send any text to O2 numbers. I can receive from them but cannot send to their numbers. No problems sending or receiving texts from other non O2 numbers.

 

I am trying desperately to send a text to 21500 an O2 number which I was asked to do by O2 but it keeps saying failed.

 

Have checked the message centre in network settings and it is correct 

+447802000332

 

Thank you

+447802092035 for PAYG 

+447802000332 for Pay Monthly

Best bet is to contact O2

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

Check you haven't blocked premium numbers in your message settings.

Even though this us free to send to, your phone wouldn't know and would block it.

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.

You are therefore @Karen731 back to @Enlli's advice above and the need to contact O2 ; you will appreciate that this is a customer to customer community and we cannot access accounts or do anything direct to resolve your problem. 👍

I have told O2 before I saw this message, the person could not think of what the problem might be.

 

I will contact them again.

Thank you.
