Apn settings

TL1 · ‎12-11-2023

I am currently abroad and since the switch from virgin to o2, my mobìle is no longer registered on the network. So i do not have the correct Apn settings for my phone. I pay monthly and have had no service for 2 months, despite calling tech support (at some expense from another phone), manually inputting the new apn settings did not work. Is it possible to have the cofiguration files emailed to me?

Please help

apn settings are only for data and do not effect the connection to the network.

You will need to replace your sim with an O2 one when back in the UK.

Pop into your local O2 store with photo ID or call customer services.
You can use Skype to call if no other phone.
Guide to using Skype:
Call 202 from any O2 mobile or 0344 809 0202, 0800 902 0217 or 0800 032 1402
When it comes to the reason you are calling, stay silent for 15 seconds and you will be taken to the keypad options.
Press 2 for Everything Else
Press 5 for More Options
Press 7 for Anything Else which will put you though to someone.
Say 'Upgrade', 'Lost/Stolen', or 'Fraud' if the suggestion above doesn't get you through.
Best time to call is 8 am.
You can also reach O2 via social media:
Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB), Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW), or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG)
