Hi

 

I entered a chat in MyO2 earlier today because I had been given a new account and apparently another new phone number rather than my existing account being upgraded on the same number and a new plan. I am on holiday in the US with only my existing number. It was suggested in the chat that the second account had been created in error and the accounts should be merged. I specifically asked for this not to be done because I was worried it would cause problems while I am abroad and need my phone. I have just landed and I can not connect to any networks. I have tried to log into MyO2 but my account is no longer recognised. I can’t call any help numbers because I don’t have a phone. Any online chat needs me to log into MyO2 again. Further has all the chat I had earlier now been deleted. 

Please help. I need my MyO2 account opened asap as the only way I can communicate without a working phone is online chat when I have a WiFi connection. 

 

Many thanks.

Looks as if you have taken out a new contract rather than upgrading your old one.

If O2 can't help while you are in the US, you could buy a local sim from T-Mobile or AT&T mobile. At least you would have a working phone.
