Email from O2 (and not a monkey this time)

Just received an email from O2 (see below). This is a reply to my email sent to O2 complaints department. But the from address and reply to address are the normal "customer services". I sent this email to complaintreviewservice@o2.com and complaints@o2mail.co.uk. This I know since the subject line is the one of that email and not the one going to the customer services team.
So the matter is almost resolved now, one week after my first email and a lot of rather frustrating communications back and forth.
Only outstanding issue now is my balance on the Pay as you go SIM. It's not there...
Oh, and the small matter that they just swapped numbers and SIMs around without any notice that they were about to cancel the services on one of the SIM cards. So I had to find that out myself. My apologies to anyone who might have tried to contact me over the last couple of days.
OK, the email from O2 then...

O2: Transfer of number (KMM417442479V56350L0KM)?
