lau1247 wrote: » eddiem74, did you actually try to process the code on the site even though you haven't spend 127 in the last 6 month?? Or you just gave up once you saw that?? The last time I did it, I don't think I met the criteria and still got the code..

The problem is that her Tesco number was orininally an O2 number and to complicate things further it was originally in my name on O2. So the Gold SIM that she got is no good. She was informed that I will have to drive 25 miles to the nearest O2 shop to do the swap as the original number was in my name several years ago. I'm starting to wonder if this is worth the trouble. There is bound to be some problem when I go to the O2 shop tomorrow i.e will I be able to get the Gold Sim tariff?
