    02 say they don't know anything about this offer and that they don't offer FREE PHONES on PAYG tarriff....so the plot thickens

    Just been on phone to O2, she said if you have confirmation of phone order,you will get one unless you have received e-mail saying its been cancelled. They are out of stock & I will be receiving one within 10 days. If you not received e-mail which says order is cancelled you will receive one.

    From O2: "We regret to inform you that the items you have ordered from us are currently
    out of stock although we will make every effort to ensure that they will be
    delivered to you as soon as possible."

    But I also got this from them "We're happy to tell you that your O2 order has been passed to our warehouse for dispatch. This should be on its way to you very soon. "

    Wonder which is right? The "out of stock one seems to have been sent an hour before the "on its way" one.

    have stopped breath holding now anyway after reading some of the other threads :)
    Stop looking for answers....
    The most you can hope for are clues.....:)
  • ISSUE: The O2 Services team have advised that a known error on the O2 shop which allows customers to fraudulently obtain free handsets has been added to various websites. It has been identified there is currently over 12,000 free handset orders in backlog as a result of this issue.

    IMPACT: Splash pages have been applied to the Consumer shop to prevent any further fraudulent activity. External Customers attempting to place orders with O2 for new handsets and connections will not be able to at present. This change will also be implemented onto the Telesales shop. Once the change begins the Telesales shop will also be off line.

    Upgrade and Agent Shop are not impacted by this issue

    UPDATE (15:30 27/01/07): The O2 Services Team had a change scheduled for Monday night which as had to be brought foward.(CCR 3176578). This change has been through the test environment and will resolve the underlying issue.

    RESOLUTION TIMESCALES: TBC.
