How do I merge 2 separate accounts.

I have 2 phones - 1 was on PAYG and 1 on a monthly contract. Last week I changed the PAYG to monthly. I received a new SIM, activated it and transferred my old number across. Before I started this I had one myO2 account which held both numbers. I now find that I have 2 separate accounts (using 2 different email addresses) and this is ridiculous. Customer services are unable to tell me how to get back to having 1 account containing both numbers - can anybody else help please?

@CDC 

Try "bring in other products" in your MyO2.

I tried adding a second phone to the account but I got a message which said:

 

This device is already registered to a My O2 account.

 

Do I need to un-register a phone, or delete one of the accounts first?

Are they both using the same email address @CDC1 ?

No. It won't allow me to use the same email address so I've had to create a second email address in order to access the second O2 number

Try changing the email address now it's registered.

It's in the "My details" section.

O2 Customer Services have contacted me about this. They said that they are in the process of changing computer systems and that merging 2 accounts is not possible at the moment. There were unable to say when the problem would be resolved - they couldn't tell me whether it would be weeks, months or years. The only way for me to find out would be to keep trying it. Altogether very unhelpful.
