if you get one of the online contracts then you can't ring them to find out about how many minutes you have left which is not ideal. For this I believe you need a phone bought through the o2 shop, Care Phone Warehouseor somethin

Jackie - thanks for sharing this experience. When you said your son couldn't easily phone a free number to find out howmany mins etc he had left, is this to say that they don't provide this kindof service? - Andy----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <cairnsplace@xxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 6:17 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Phone contracts with O2 | Hi Andy | | My son took out one of the O2 30-day opt-out contracts last year, but didn't | like it and returned to O2 Pay-As-You-Go. With the contract, he could have | 500 free texts per month and 600 free minutes. But they messed up his| billing date, which I had to sort out as I was the account holder since he| is still under 18. Then he couldn't easily phone a free number to find out| how many texts or minutes he had remaining as he could do with his top-up| service. He got so fed up, and frankly so did I, that he terminated the | contract and went back to what he had before with the same company. | | I'm not alone in saying O2 aren't the most helpful in-store network either, | which always counts for a lot with me when people are assistive and | friendly. || You might have better luck though, but I personally don't like O2 Customer| Services. Sorry to sound negative, but they aren't my favourite network by | a long way. | | Jackie | | Email: cairnsplace@xxxxxxx | Skype Name: Cairnsplace| ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Andy Collins" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>| To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> | Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2008 5:59 PM | Subject: [access-uk] Phone contracts with O2 | | | > Hi all | > | > O2 seem to be the only provider offering the N82 on contract.
