@Woods 

Personally I would return it and deal only with O2 directly.

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

It's probably from a 'trusted' partner or by a company claiming to call on behalf of O2.

If you have the option to return the phone I would recommend you do that

Never buy or take out a contract via a cold call

Customer service may be able to advise about the company.

@Woods We generally advise people to never agree to anything from cold callers. If you're not a business, send the phone back. You could wind up getting locked in to a long and expensive contract.
