    Just phoned 02 customer services
    0800 9708 702

    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
    nothing like letting them know there is a glitch is there :confused:
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
    Our thoughts are ever with you,Though you have passed away.And those who loved you dearly,
    Are thinking of you today.

    a few hours after your confirmation of order email you get one saying, sorry out of stock
    nothing ventured nothing gained

    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.

    so they are going to send them out then? :beer:

    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.

    "fraudulently" obtaining handsets.....they could take action you know...;)

    after all, they have peoples details & addresses
  • Ignorance is not an excuse! Don't worry about it though, most likely that the orders will be cancelled and left at that :rolleyes:
