Hello Everyone,
As mentioned briefly in the past, we’re looking to upgrade our forum platform in the coming months. We’re making some huge investments to improve our forum and enhance the forum community. I’m happy to say that the project is progressing smoothly, we’re also taking into consideration the feedback many of you have been giving us like the recent spam issues.
I’m very excited about the facelift and anticipate a similar reaction from all of you. There’ll be lots of fun activities with the forum revamp but we’ll remain focused on the key element – ‘how to make our forum a better place to help each other with any query related to O2 products & services.’
I’ll share more information as soon as I get them, until that watch the space guys! slight_smile
Any feedback or suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks
Abs

Hi Bambino,

 

If you have a look at the first post on this thread - you'll know that we've been talking about the forum changes from a long time. This particular thread was made a ‘sticky thread’ in the old forum under the ‘Announcements’ section to keep everyone aware.

 

We wanted a fresh start with this re-launch of the O2 Community, having said that we've migrated threads with the busiest content - so, you should still be able to get all the helpful posts that has been answered in the old forum.

 

Our new O2 Community is fully integrated with our website (http://www.o2.co.uk/) - with this new process, you don’t need to have multiple IDs and it becomes much easier to get everyone involved in the conversations & any further help/ support required.

 

With regards to your old username and profile – I’m more than happy to make the relevant changes, if you’d like. Just drop me a PM with your details.

 

Thanks, Abs

How do I drop you a PM and how do I stop all the mails from everyone who posts in a thread I have posted in from filling up my inbox? I can't see a way to stop mail in preferences.

perksie,
TBH I never knew about the change until the forum was down and I do know a lot more also so it's not just Bambino. Why wasn't our old names moved over is beyond me, every other forum that I'm on have changed but it all moves, tis a bit silly.

Hi @Abs
Since yesterday have been looking for a way to change the email address attached to my forum profile, but can see no way to do so. Can you point me in right direction please?

 

Is the forum profile part of my o2 profile? seems to be in terms of login, but when i check my o2 profile, its set to use the email address I want my forum profile to use, but can't see any way to merge the two?

 

Many thanks,

You could always create another O2 account with a different email address
