Needs a call to O2, @Jamie0909  - take any of the options offered and when you get onto the queue, hang in there for a rep to answer.

Numbers here: Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support

Webchat is being phased back in starting Monday, if you start early, ça 08:15, you stand a better chance of getting through on voice - not sure if that also applies to Webchat.

 

If it's just the number that appears in your MyO2 on website or the app, go into account Settings, and edit the number yourself.

Ah yes - my call mentioned "Bolt-on" and then "Billing" to get past that step when I had to call up at the start of April.

 

Here's a list of all the areas that ARE being serviced by phone, and of those deemed self-service, if it helps, @Jamie0909:

Note these guidelines are evolving and changing as circumstances change.
