I've been with O2 for 73 months on the same number, according to a phone call I recieved yesterday.
I recently broke my phone and I am currently useing a cheap £10 one until I get a new one. O2 seemed to have noticed I changed my phone and have started bombarding me with phone calls about upgrades, contracts and the like.
I have always used pay as you go and recently I have noticed a sharp increase in the amount of texts I recieve from O2. Seriously I've had this phone a week and I have 7 texts from O2 in that time. The I realised that they always do this, they always bother me with texts and calls. I've had calls off the ***** during lectures and even whilst abroad, when they can plainly see I am abroad.
I texted the STOP message they say you can text to stop the messages, and that just increased my messages.
So **** O2, I'm looking for a network that is light on the harrasment, my life doesn't revolve around my phone and I don't care about bundles and ****, I just want a phone, that lets me make calls, lets me connect to wi fi and stores a few songs to listen to on commutes, with a network that is happy to just let me bumble along paying £10-£15 a month in top ups some months not topping up some months topping up a little extra.
In short **** OFF O2.
