Hey there.  I have put my new sim into my phone.  I have tried to send a text to 20220 with the words SWAP.  However the text won't go.  My phone says emergency only, I have a full signal.  Can you help please.  This has been going on for 3 weeks now

You send the first text from the old sim.

If the old sim isn't working or lost, you need to contact O2 or go in store with photo ID.
