Unbelievably Difficult to get an answer from O2

Anonymous
Not applicable

I cancelled my account in September by phone from NZ as I have moved and have a new sim. (out of 24 month contract)

I've been sent an unpleasant email and a further bill from O2.  Emailed them last night NZ time as per suggestion on email (email address provided in body of letter).

Got a reply this morning to say that email support has been shut down and to use online chat.  Waited 10 minutes to be connected.  When finally got someone, they said all my security answers were wrong - which I challenged, then they agreed they had made a mistake! By this time, 15 minutes had passed, and I had to drive to work.  Have now got to work, tried online chat again - and they are all busy.  I am not going to ring again from a NZ landline which is what I did in September to apparently no effect whatsoever.  So, no email support, and chat lines not taking any calls.  For a communications business - they are rubbish!!!!

To be honest I don't find live chat very good when dealing with account issues. You can ring from the numbers in this link (from abroad included) http://www.o2.co.uk/contactus

Try to ring between 8am to 8.30am UK time

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.
