Lost SIM and can't remember my account password. How do I restore access?


Around an year ago I bought a SIM+Phone deal for my oldest son.

Due to unbeliavable events, he lost his phone and he cannot remember the password to his account.

I’d like to restore access to verify if his contract is still in the “promotion” period and eventually take additional steps from there but the recovery password require me to have access to the phone number as well.

How can I get access back into the account if I lost the phone/sim?

Hi @theCrius 

It would be worth getting in touch with our Customer Services Team or ourselves privately in order to take some details from you and send you out a replacement SIM card.

This will then make it possible for you to reset your password easily and be able to find out all the answers you need.  Alternatively, you can put any questions to ourselves or our Customer Services Team when speaking to them directly.

 

The range of ways you can contact us is as follows:
