free 250 minutes on 02 without topping up

compmad1

I have registered 2 sim cards and have had £2.50 put on. I rang the 2425 number for the calls 50 bolt on. I got a text reply saying that I would hear from them, but I haven't. That was 4 days ago. I tried again on a second card and sent a text message for the free 100 texts on 21300. Just got a text back to say that I am not eligible for one. Am I doing it correctly? Perhaps they've stopped it. I'm really pleased with the £2.50 free credit anyway.

Hello compmad1,
Did you try to call on your 1st sim?b'cuz some times they don't send you confirmation text.Though i'm activating free Bolt On on my new sim now so i'll check it whether it's working or not.but u have to wait for some time for my reply cuz it takes 24 to 48 hour to activate it.

I today received two sim cards and it states I need to put on £10 credit .
My son is home for a week from abroad & I'd like to give it to him to use.
Can he just put it into his phone without paying anything. Call me thick but I've waded through the thread and getting more confused! Thanks alot.

I did do a test call on the first sim card and money was taken off. I've now given them to my sons to spend the free money, and I'm going to have a go with 2 more.

Thanks for your help.

Has anyone tried to get 200 or 400 free texts? It's the same number to text, just different words.

I don't think that any such plan exists on O2 PAYG? or does it?

I've just printed off their Pay & Go Bolt Ons page and they are all listed.

I can tell you the 'Calls and Messaging' which costs £10 (allegedly lol) does not seem to work...

Well I activated the calls50 originally, then tried to change to CallsandMessaging which did not work! It says my tariff is inelligble!

But it may work on a fresh sim!
