AOL Mac Code

Hi, I'm looking to change from AOL to O2 for my broadband. Aol have said it will be 5 working days for me to be emailed my MAC code. Does it normally take this long or am I just being fobbed off?

have heard it can take that long before, but they should be able to do it more or less instantaneous, but perhaps they only have a couple of people there whom generate MACs0

Hi,yeh we've just changed from aol & we got the mac code e-mail within 24hrs after asking for it,even though they did say up to 5 working days to recive,so id have a look at your e-mails.0

Remember quidco0

they said 5 days to me today, hope it is sooner0

already used quidco and its tracked. I'm just waiting to give O2 my mac code now and I'll be up and running. Still no sign of the mac code yet, so will probably have to wait the 5 days.0

If its O2 LLU you dont need a mac code0

i switched from a BT line to a LLU based providor i didnt need a MAC code and none was asked for.
Of course o2 may do things differently to my experience, thats why i presume you dont need one0
