I managed to lose the SIM card that I use for doing data stuff whilst travelling.&#160; It&#8217;s invariably in a phone in my cupboard somewhere &#8211; or tucked into that condom pocket of a pair of jeans that I haven&#8217;t worn for a while &#8211; nevertheless, I can&#8217;t find it and it&#8217;s pissing me off.<\/p>\n<p>So I called those helpful little girls and boys in Carphone Warehouse and mentioned that I&#8217;d lost it so they passed me over to the O2 sales team who told me it would cost me 15 quid for a new SIM.&#160; I&#8217;ve lost hundreds [ well probably not hundreds but quite a few I reckon ] of these little rectangular plastic bastards with a little bit chopped out of the corner and never has anyone asked me to pay 15 pounds for the privilege of receiving a new one.&#160; In fact, it happened just a few months ago when I lost my phone and SIM that is from a direct contract with O2.&#160; They couldn&#8217;t be more helpful.&#160; A new SIM was sorted out and sent out to me the next day.&#160; Could it be that due to my average bill on that SIM being about 200 quid they were pretty keen to keep me as a customer?&#160; Or could it be that unlike Carphone Warehouse, O2 seem to have a fucking clue?<\/p>\n<p>So they want me to give them money so that I can use the SIM to generate data on their network which they will then charge me money for.&#160; Fuck that!&#160; If they want my cash then the bunch of pricks can send me a new fucking SIM,&#160; Jesus!<\/p>\n<p>The situation now is that I&#8217;m waiting for the contract to end [ September ] and in the meantime have to pay them the line rental on the SIM &#8211; ho hum.&#160; Then promptly on 7th September I will jam my foot into the anus of Carphone Warehouse and tell them I&#8217;ll be taking my custom elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>Carphone Warehouse have crap customer service and I&#8217;ll not be dealing with that bunch of pricks again&#8230;once I&#8217;ve cancelled my contract.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Somehow, and I&#8217;m not too sure how, but somehow,&#160;
