Update on the O2 Webmail closure

[Martin-O2]

Hi guys, 

As most of you are aware the O2 webmail service will be closing on the 20th June 2016. Several recent email's from O2 have stated that your email account will be closing on different dates. These dates were incorrect and I can confirm that your email account will definitely be closing on the 20th June 2016. Sorry for the mix up with the closure dates. 

There’s still time to transfer your contacts and email addresses, and attachments to Gmail and Outlook accounts (Hotmail). Just make sure you move them before your o2.co.uk email account closes on 20th June. Unfortunately, we can’t transfer them to Yahoo! Mail, so you’ll need to set up an email account with someone else like Gmail, Outlook (Hotmail), or another email account of your choice. Likewise, if you use your o2.co.uk email address as your login for any online services like banking or shopping, you'll need to update those too in case of any password resets. 

If anyone has any questions please ask.

Yeah, I was wondering whether I explained it properly or made it more confusing 

I had over 2000 emails stored but it doesn't take long once you know the steps. You don't even have to delete and redo the transfer process, just go into options and click save again and it will transfer them.

Hi @Anonymous,

These posts are great! A very easy-to-use guide indeed. If you'd like, feel free to create a guide of all of these posts and we can make sure its seen by anyone who would need it in the next few weeks

Well done!

Of course, if people would only use an email client on their device rather than rely on access via a browser to a webmail server then they wouldn't need to go through all of this.

That's a fair point @Beenherebefore and hopefully members are slowly converting if they have not. At least now we have a great few information posts

Thanks Toby 

Sadly it's just a few days more before closure; 6days I make it, unless I got the math wrong!

Yep, not long!
