What is 'your alias' within my active accounts?

Logged on to My O2 today and was greeted by a return/exchange screen. When I look at my active accounts I have my mobile number as one account and 'Your alias' as another...? Any information as to what 'your alias' is?

Never seen that one before, it might be so you can add a name to the sim card, such as Ultra S23 etc

But it does sound like you have been or in the process of been migrated to the new billing system

@Blue198 

We’re just customers like you but it sounds like you’ll need someone to access your account which can’t be done from here. If you message O2 on Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG) , they should be able to help you with this

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

I have the same issue. It's taken me months of being unable to view bills or do anything else online to realise that when I log on, it defaults to this phantom "Your Alias" account.

Appreciate the suggestion to contact CS but sadly that might as well be a suggestion to contact the Man in the Moon, as O2 don't believe in providing anything even vaguely resembling CS...

@CO4 That's all we can offer here.

Customers the same as yourself. 

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

Indeed, a perfect example of O2's contempt for it's customers. Host a forum but refuse to participate in it.

Just for a laugh I did send the query to their Facebook page to be met with:

Lots more niggly differences between old/legacy and new MyO2, as well as whether you are using the MyO2 App or MyO2 web, @CO4https://accounts.o2.co.uk/signin - eg, here:
