William, 20 Feb. 2025 , 03:51pm
We’ve already had a talk before because I’ve told you guys how this account was made fraudulently under my name and address with my bank details. I was told it will be sorted but now I’m getting things on my bank saying to pay this which makes no sense!

Soaif Ali, 20 Feb. 2025 , 03:56pm
Hi William, and good afternoon! I appreciate you contacting O2. My apologies for the wait.  
  
I'm see that you have been charged a late payment fee of £6.00  
It is only applied when the payment is extended.  
  
Also, if I am correct, you have not setup this account of your own, right?
[Read]

William, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:01pm
Yes it was made fraudulently

William, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:01pm
I never took out any phone and I have no need to have an o2 account

Soaif Ali, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:05pm
I understand that. Thanks for confirming.  
  
Just to confirm, you had a Virgin contract recently, right?  
Do you currently have the phone, Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max 512GB?

No. I haven’t taken any phone out that’s what I’m saying!

William, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:08pm
This happened with you guys, ee, three and vodaphone and my all these places and my bank have already cancelled this and determined its fraud but for some reason you guys don’t want to even sort this out

William, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:08pm
And I don’t know what a virgin contract is

Soaif Ali, 20 Feb. 2025 , 04:18pm
