Sending VM kit back
 

Has anyone had any success taking their equipment back to an O2 store after disconnection?


I'd already decided I didn't fancy risking the Yodel route even if VM do send the relevant returns pack through (which they haven't so far). I read around and found you could just take your equipment in to an O2 shop with your account number, name, address and equipment serial numbers and to make sure to get a receipt for proof.


Being somewhat wary I rang my easiest to get to O2 shop. The woman I spoke to asked me if I had prearranged it with VM and that their system didn't recognise VM accounts so no point bringing it in unanounced. When I suggested this didn't match my information she "accidentally" hung up on me. :rolleyes:

Last time I had VM I got the local team to come collect it. While the guy was at my property I asked for him to check and confirm everything is in order, he insisted on doing the checks back at the office, I said no. Do it now please. Call VM and ask for collection. I didn't bother will yodel but I had a choice on the phone when cancelling, postal or pick up.

How did you get them to come and collect?
I've had nothing from them other than a countdown to disconnection on my account page.
I had a feeling the option to take the kit to an O2 shop was too straightforward for VM. I've tried ringing a couple of other O2 stores and neither of them answer. Seems like VM and O2 are well suited to each other.

Contact the CEOs office via email if you haven't any luck with contacting VM CS. One of their UK based representatives will get intouch and they from the experience I've had are really good.
