Cancel O2 Contract for blocking 07xxxxxx

Is it possible to cancel O2 contract for blocking 07xxxxx without informing us like the way they did previously for 0844/0845/0870 and the 07744/07755.

If anyone's managed to cancel please advise.

Many thanks and much appreciated.

  • What numbers have they blocked? Don't all mobile numbers start 07?

    Anyone know if you can get out of your contract with O2 for this reason? Thanks.

    Read the T&Cs they gave you to find out whether it states call forwarding numbers should include those numbers

    It would be good if someone who has managed to get their contracts terminated without fees for O2 to start blocking the 07879xxx Nos to shed some light on this matter.

    I know these were used to make int calls, so were the 0844/0854 & 0870s nos too.
