Unable to pay my 3 monthly accounts

Anonymous
Not applicable
O2 I have been a loyal customer of yours since before you were O2; BT, I have stayed with you through name changes and takeovers, but the last four months has tested that to fullest. Crazy
 
Why!!! I hear you ask, you payment systems and the faults has meant much frustration. Your company claims that their is no fault, but is rather a fault with MY bank which is untrue.
 
But today has taken the biscuit, I phone your automated service trying to pay the bill; but failed again, to be put through to one of your service operators. Who in fairness tried twice to take a payment which failed AGAIN. He asked if I had another card; no I don't, then asked if I was sure I had the funds to cover the bill; yes I do, then stated the problem is with your bank failing to process the payment.
 
After talking with your service operator, I called my bank who checked the history on my account, not only have they NOT declined any payments, they haven't received any notifications from you; O2.
 
So your payment; both online and automated service, are broken. It has been a known fault on your online service for four months, even your store assistants know about it and they are as frustrated with it as I am.  I need you; O2, to get your engineers to look into the faults.  I tried to request that your operator to put in a notification while on the phone this morning.  He claimed he couldn't.
 
So I politely ask that you sort both out ASAP.

I tried this morning, got told again "it's the first time we've heard of this"
"You must be new then" was my reply.
I told her it's not her fault but i know there is a problem.
Luckily it's only one account for me that needs paying but that happens to be my wife's line and is the one my son's school use to keep daily contact.

It really is bad.  I've tried everything.  Nothing seems to be working.  I'm very worried as the bills have been paid using a bank account and O2's payment account details as suggested elsewhere on this site and none of these payments are showing on the accounts.  I've sent Toby a direct message and moaned about it on twitter.  Hopefully we can come up with something.  In the meantime, my services are restricted but i bet i'll still get charged.

@Anonymousthe suggestions re paying direct via bank transfer are from my ways to pay guidelines. These were produced BEFORE O2 changed a perfectly good payment system Sorry they didn't work for you slight_frown

 Cleoriff.....They made a great deal of sense though. That's how we used to pay on line in the "old days". I do have payment records so they haven't disappeared.
