I had a pay as you go SIM and not long ago it was shut off. I can't get any service when the SIM card is in my iPhone and really need it as i need to get a confirmation code from my bank to that specific phone number, does anyone know how i can get it back up and running as i tried three times on the O2 phone line and got no where, also i had been using the sim so it wasnt cut off due to inactivity.

You need to top up every 6 months so that's why it is disconnected.

You will have to keep trying O2 as we are just customers here like yourself.

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.

Message them on Social Media. Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG) or give them a call on 0344 8090222 (PAYG)

What sort of PAYG? If the old style classic when was it last topped up?

When did you last make a chargeable call.

Trying to find the reason for it being disconnected 

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