Steps To Acquire O2 SIM Card & Old Phone Number

Say you have lost your phone with the O2 sim card. In that case, immediately request for blocking the phone number so that no further calls are made through the device.

This is important because lost & stolen phones often have high phone bills because either the customer failed to report or the network carrier didn’t take any action.

Once the old SIM card is blocked, request for a new one. The customer support representative will courier you a new SIM card with the same old number. If you already have O2 sim card with a different number, you can request to convert it into the old number — this will take a few days as O2 team will have to confirm the owner’s identity and block the old phone number.
