I think I know someone who will be really pleased by this
Good while it lasted sad to see it go will cost me £10 at midnight to buy a GG goody bag and then will have to search for a new deal for my back-up sim in my dual sim phone (I will be getting a new one soon currently on its way from China) best get one of my other sims working in the slot that Ovivio was in.I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.0 -
I assume this means that the £15 credit I had will have gone '!!!!!!' with the company too! :mad:0

Yes, you could try becoming a creditor if they have gone into liquidation, but don't fancy chances of getting anything back.
If it a recent purchase you could try a claim through the credit card company.
Luckily I only had a £1 or so with them having used most of my £10 credit on international texts and calls when my wife was abroad.I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.0 -
I brought a Ovivo sim this morning paying with PayPal. I have raised a dispute with PayPal so we will have to see.
Thinking may be able to get cc that fund PayPal involved.
It's a pain and due to work I won't be able to really look at it until Friday.
Suppose I should be happy it's only £20 I got hit for.0 -
I think a new thread would be a better idea ...If anyone has found other deals please post here to try and help others.

It's not an issue for the CC as you used them to pay Paypal, not to Ovivo.
Just keep with the Paypal claim, they will refund you for goods not received.====0 -
It seems they just ran out of cash
