Are you with OVO or with Boost?

If you have a Pre-payment meter with OVO see:

If however you are with Boost, or your problem isn't covered by that link above then please come back and give more details of what you are having an issue with.

You will need to make contact with customer support (details for both OVO and Boost are in the links provided) as no one here has access to your account
