Was removed from my rolling plan with no warning despite still being charged at start of month

I signed up for the £10 rolling plan in November and it worked perfectly until this month. I got the usual text 2 days before saying they’d be taking the money from my account, and 2 days later the money was taken. I didn’t receive a confirmation text though, and yesterday I got a text saying that I needed to sign up for a rolling plan. This confused me so I checked my account and I had been taken off the plan! I called customer support this morning and they said that o2 never received the money… On my bank statements it clearly says there was a payment to o2 on the 3rd January. And I feel this doesn’t explain why I was taken off the rolling plan either - I never got a text warning that I had a low balance or that I was being removed etc. 

 

I was put back on to the 7GB big bundle plan by customer support because I urgently needed data for today, and they said they would do it without charging me but needed to clarify that “my O2 account was definitely not topped up this month.” I’m so so annoyed - where did my money go? Why was I taken off the plan? Is the direct debit still set up and will I be charged again next month? 

Has this happened to anyone else?

Before contacting O2, I suggest that you contact your bank to obtain the unique transaction identification number of your payment. It will be a sixteen digit number. O2 will need you to provide that so that they can search for your remittance in their accounting records.   

 

Contact details are in @MI5's post above or in :-
