O2 store worker used PAC code instead of migrating my number

[ConorCT]

Went into the store on Sunday explained that I wanted to get a pay monthly SIM but keep my old O2 pay as you go number, went through the process but was made to enter a pac code and start a pac transfer even though my old SIM is with O2 told to wait 24 hours for transfer, Tuesday morning both Sims lose all connection and haven't returned since, every time I call customer support all I get is "it's in process 24 hours and it will happen guaranteed" I cannot afford to lose this number, it has everything connected to it.

Your best bet is to contact O2 on social media. They are UK based and have a better reputation than CS on phones.

Message -on Facebook ( https://o2uk.co/O2CFB) , Twitter ( https://o2uk.co/O2CTW) or Instagram ( https://o2uk.co/O2CIG)

I have already sent them a message on twitter no reply so far, I also went back into the store yesterday and spoke to the manager who said a woman had the same issue and did it with the same worker, but even in store the CS that he spoke with also just said wait 24 hours.

You have to keep nudging them on social media.

Believe me, Customer service (via phone) are very keen on saying 'Give it a few days'.

It's a ploy to get you off the phone.

The social media team appear to be far more efficient in our opinion.

Il keep at it, I just wanted to know if anyone had any experience with this, I really don't want this misused PAC transfer to mess up my number, I really can't afford to lose it.

 After talking to support on twitter it seems that I have very much just been told to chase my own tail for a week, and am now in the process of waiting another week with no phone access for these problems to be resolved. This is utterly disgusting.
