@Numbersinvalid 

As @jonsie  said, you have UPGRADED rather than taken out a new separate contract.

If you upgrade your new device takes over the phone number of the OLD device.

Easily done, but you do need to contact O2 to correct this. Use any number, press any option.

You've upgraded instead of buying new

You need to call O2 then choose any of the options, fraud etc
Everything is taking longer due to the lockdown. Call centres and social distancing means limited staff to handle all the queries. Patience needed I'm afraid.

Use Sype if you want the issue fixed

If not, good luck but there may be fees to pay on a contract you can't use

Up to you

Sounds like you made a mistake, and are now wanting to blame o2 for this. 

 

Ring them up, explain the situation, and they will try and help. 

 

BTW, if you dont contact them or pay anything, they will cancel your contract and will if need be inform debt collection agencies and your credit report will be affected.
