    you probably paid via credit card and not debit and lied and told them the £20 was for the service charge and not a signup fee.

    The other party can challenge that for 60 days after the chargeback and if they do the money will be taken off your balance until it is resolved.

    It is a lot of paperwork for just £20 so I think you'll get it on the basis of non response from other party.

    I paid via debit card, and told them it was to purchase a mobile sim card, no lies involved :)

    No paperwork for me, so im happy.

    you are wrong, my pac code is OVI173595 and so is everyone elses' on this board.

    Note: you still need to fill out the form with ovivo and get your pac code because they may have to mark it on their end that the PAC is authorised for the number.

    And my PAC is not the same either so "so is everyone elses' on this board" is clearly not right.

    Well quite a few people have the same pac coe as mine. Maybe there is a limit to how many times they can use the pac code. Like 1000 uses or something.

    Anyone would common sense can see that there aren't enough digits in pac codes to allow for every PAC code to be unique.

    Every PAC request required both phone number and pac code as well. Not just pac code on its own.

    They can have 1 million codes for Ovivo users with their code structure, they had 40k users iirc.
