i have found a solution of over spending on my mobile, i have bought another mobile, and want it on o2. as i do the deal where i put a tenner on i get 300 txt messages as well as my tenner. The only problem i find is i am using the tenner and 300 in less then a week. So i bought another one to rotate when i put the tenner on and get my 300 messages. In the past fortnight i have nearly put 30/40 pounds on my one phone.
The only problem is that the mobile i bought is restricted, anyone know how to get the code without having to pay the £10

Are you not better spending 40 quid a month on a contract and getting them to set a spending limit?

It's the past fortnight you said.
So you can afford 80 quid a month but not 40

You'd get a good contract for £15/20 a month.

Probably blocked the phone, and needs to enter PUK code to unblock it.
Also, here's an idea re. your spending... If you know you can't afford it, don't top up more than £10/month?

the new o2 sim cards gives you more free txts the more you top up
£10-£14 you get 300 txts
£15-£29 you get 500 txts
and £30 or more and get 1000 txts
as for the restriction what phone is it?
