O2 The classic first topup

sheffieldeagle

Hi

Just bought an O2 The classic SIM off eBay. It says I should do my first top-up using an O2 top-up voucher from a retailer. Not sure what they mean. Is this using an e-topup card because I thought these were now obsolete.

Many thanks

Ita a voucher you get from pay point shops or supermarkets.
It will have a code on the voucher,and you call 4444,and when prompted tap the number on your keypad,and £10 credit gets loaded on sim.

Minimum top up is £10

So I can't do it on the self scan by the sounds of it. It was asking for a card?

I did it using a debit card via the My O2 App.

Thanks for the help. Managed to top-up with a credit card but also tried registering for myo2 but you seem to need an existing O2 account. Bit of a chicken n egg situation.
