Many thanks for the information.

How long do you think the systems will be down?

What happens if people have already kicked off the activation process, will it stay stuck on those screens for a good few hours till this is sorted?

I have tried to activate my sim since 4pm yesterday. My accounts shows a balance etc but I still have no network and it's after 10am the next morning. Any help would be appreciated.

That's something to ask an agent about I think as it's account related. Normally with the balance showing that would imply that the SIM is activated though - are you sure your phone is unlocked and the SIM installed correctly?

My phone is on o2 which should not be an issue.

I tried my sim in my old phone which i have used with giffgaff for over a month and still no joy.
