Received a text from O2 this morning telling me I had now recieved my 300 texts and 1MB internet. Puzzled for a second It dawned on me how every so often O2 randomly apply your allowances without you having topped up.

This isn't the first time this has happened to me either. Reckon it's been happening for upto 2 years, maybe. In fact it's happened so many times I've lost count!

Every so often O2 text you and apply your text & internet allowance without you having topped up! That is both bizarre and great at the same time !

So then . . Has anyone else ever had this happen to them ? You really cannot complain when they " giving " you your allowance ?

I am curious though as to why it happens but I certainly am not complaining about it

You used to have to top up 48 hours before your anniversary date you get your free allowance, but now you can top up much further in advance.

For example, top up today - 1st January. You get your free allowance. If you top up again on 5th January, this will cover you for your allowance on 1st February.

Did you top up twice in one month? This is what happens.

O2 are pretty good. I remember when I was on PAYG they would always send a text me once a week or something offering me free texts or free minutes. I also got 3G in Poland. My phone is 3G capable but it doesn't seem to want to give me 3G in the UK. 3G is probably not included in SIM only PAYG.
