Yet Another Number Transfer Taking Forever Post. YANTTFP

[Anonymous]

Or if you like, Requesting Another Number Transfer Incredibly Not Good. - RANTING...

It took a week of botched contracts, and failed messages to get the new phone delivered.

Now into four days and counting, and still no number transfer happening. This is after two attempts. One via the direct SMS method. Looks good, but didn't happen yet.

The second on Monday via the web page interfce. Looks good, but still ... nothing happening..

and yes I know this community can do nothing, but that's ok, because neither can O2 it seems.

I guess I'll just have to continue looking important, or like a drug pusher, and carry around two mobile phones ... until someone decides they should do a bit of work. I mean, in this day and age, and O2 Techs doesn't work weekends???? Do they think they are NHS doctors of something?

Anyway, this discussion about  policies & practices relating to O2 advisors instore... has taken the OP way off topic...so I will leave it there.....:smileyhappy:

Quite agree. Instore policy varies from store to store and staff member to weekend staff to students.

The opening post and then this one @MI5 http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Pay-Monthly-and-Pay-Go/Yet-Another-Number-Transfer-Taking-Forever-Post-...

Hope this has cleared the wood...

Post 1 tells me nothing, tbh.
The link above suggests a simple sim swap is required http://swapmysim.o2.co.uk/
There shouldn't be anything difficult or confusing at all so I'm a little perplexed why this thread is 5 pages long.... Unless I'm missing something?

Yes, you would think so wouldn't you. Still, it's been nearly 5 days now, and still no swap. 

as for the 5 pages, well everyone likes to express thier opinion in a community... 

and the smilies - are fun.

There has to be a reason for it not working - It usually happens very quickly.
What is unique about your issue or out of the ordinary ?

Nothing unique that I know of. Both Phones are on the O2 network, both O2 numbers, one PAYG and one Monhly Contract.
