Nope, no free tech support I'm afraid.
FYI, o2 online has around 4000 unanswered emails last I heard.
If its any consolation, at least o2 online don't have a holding system, the phone just rings. If they had a holding system the call charges really would be astronomical!

My bother is on "Genie" but is it right he cannot use MMS as you need to move to a NEW "o2" online tarrif....as MMS can not be actibated on an old "genie" tariff?
Thanks

There is no difference between Genie tariffs and o2 online tariffs.
There has been absolutely no difference at this end.
Please note, I am referring to PAYG/PAYT here - I am not a contract advisor and I do not know if there is any difference there.

You can now have MMs on the old Genie tariff but don't hold your brief. they have been tryiing to do mine now for 2 weeks, OFTEL have got involved as well now as apparetnly my account, although contract, has been run as a PAYG and therfore I have been refused services I was otherwise supposed to be able to get for the last 3 years!
O2 goes from strength to strength
lol
It's a farce, always has been since the BT/Securicor days

I've got an online PAYG o2 simcard (min £10 a month for 300tx and 300wapmins) and I just had GPRS and MMS turned on for me the other day. It took about 10days from the day I sent them an email requesting it to having it activated, not bad
One problem though... I can send out MMS messages from my T68i and get a confirmation saying that it's been acceptead and that it's been sent and the other person receives it.... but when I send them to myself.. I don't get them... I dont even get an SMS msg telling me to look at the MMS on a website or anything
Can other people that have MMS on o2 tell me what you've got for MMSC server address? Mine is

Well, as usual, more 02 probs, they now say that MMS and GPRS can't be enabled at same time, so I foolishly ring them up, I really should know better by now.
OK mate will change you to MMS only, right now , noo worries will be sorted mate, you can trust us ..etc
4 days later, you've guessed it.
Another beauty from O2 online, my ma takes her's to Ireland , gets 'message not sent' while using SMS, at 50p a go!!!!!!!!!!!
So she keeps trying all day then the person she is sending to sends back ' you've sent me 20 messages!!'
£10!!! THEY WILL FEEL MY WRATH MONDAY MORNING!!!!!!!!!!

The way I have always been told about this is that the donor network operator retains ownership of the mobile number and any calls to that number still go through the original network, which is why its charged.
sorry jalu, but thats bollocks. the number is actually the property of the customer, until they decide they don't want it anymore by changing phonelines without porting the number.
it's because o2's billing system uses the 07xxx prefix to determine which network the number started on, and no amount of ports elsewhere will convince the computer it's moved from it's original network.
however, one bright spot as far as i can see is that if everyone bought an o2 prepay sim pack, and then port the numbers elsewhere, o2 will forever think they are o2 numbers and will charge lower rates to those numbers.
screw o2.

Nah, you're wrong.
But don't let that stop a perfectly good rant, maybe you should work at o2 with you being all knowledgable.
Trust me, I'm trained on this shit, I know what I'm talking about

so why does this problem only affect o2?
voda, orange & t-mobile can charge a call to a number by which network it is on, so why can't o2?
