Anonymous
Not applicable
from in app & o2 billing text reminders is not ringing....
are o2 aware of this?

how do I call an o2 0800 number for free on my mobile? or are they free anyway due to them being o2 numbers?
I don't want to be racking up charges by ringing this 0800 o2 number off my mobile.

thanks Mi5.

hopefully o2 will test their "2729" number too & resolve the fact it doesn't work.

ended up ringing 202 instead, which is ok & gets job done, but theres no point in having the 2729 number being sent in texts or in the app if it wont work, just beeps & disconnects.

Drop the first "0", so just dial "800"

I have just tried this and a call to 2729 works with no problem.

 

The cost of calls to O2 is detailed in "Contact us" at the foot of the page.

There haven't been any reports here of it not working and they come in very quickly if anything doesn't work.

They have updated the app today so maybe that helps. Haven't had the need to use it before to be honest.
