I keep getting emails apparently from O2 saying my NCBUYOUTxxxx (four digits) will expire on 26th September.
I have also had two telephone calls to the effect that due to the Virgin Media tie-up, my SIM card will expire and I have to do something about it.
I have treated it all as scams. Is it, or will my phone stop working?

The phone call is a scam and should be reported by sending the number to 7726 then block the number.
Or Order number message is legitimate. This is from O2.
We advised customers of this change via email in May and that you'd receive a notification when this is complete.
The out of bundle charges reduction is a free Bolt On that was added to accounts to reduce the cost of any out-bundle-usage. The Bolt On would be automatically removed when no longer active. The removal/modification is completed via an order.
You can check orders on your account in the My O2 app : https://www.o2.co.uk/help/apps/my-o2-app
Go to Support > Orders > Track my order > Select your mobile number.
Please refer to the email sent in May for additional information.
