All my company phones are down, as are my daughter-in laws phone. Anyone else having issues?
-
My O2 phone's OK. They normally only take down their network when Sleazyjet have cancelled my flight and I'm stuck in Munich for the night. (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26795734/Smilies/banghead.gif)

intermittent troubles on giffgaff, which runs on 02 :(
-
We seem to be back up and running for now. Is there anyway I can cancel two contracts with them?
-
If they're that crap, no harm in asking ::)

They are, had nothing but trouble with them.

Have had no real issues with T mobile :y genuinely unlimited data is a big plus on their contact phones :y
-
Going by title I thought this was going to be about O2 sensors on the car, Then again it's general chat section :-[ ;D
-
GiffGaff has been on and off since last Friday >:(

I use THREE Pay As You Go on the iPhone 5, Top up £15 a month and get unlimited Internet 3G soon will have 4G as well I believe at no extra cost, You get so much minuets/texts as well can't remember exactly how much.
-
3 Are the ones I'm looking at going with, they give unlimited everything whereas at the minute we're limited to 1GB of internet.

Use mine all the time now and a fair bit of Terthering, with no issues, there coverage in London seems to be getting worse though, mainly due to them nicking the 3g Sites and Frequencies for there 4G mash up.
Glad I stuck with Vodacrap now for my main number, did have a play with someone else's Voda 4G the other day on my lappy, was quiet impressed with the speed and coverage.

Who supplies their network? When EE was formed, 3 were only given access to the original Orange network, not T mobile or EE
O2 are crap with data allowances... a cynic might suggest that being the original Gayphone network they set their tariffs to rip the shit out of consumers who buy into the whole Crapple way of constant downloading thinking :-X

Can I ask what you define as crap Al?
I've been with O2 since the eighties, I have tried other networks in between but for the last 14 years it's been O2 for me.
I currently pay £12 per month (inc) for 600 anytime, any network minutes, unlimited SMS, 20 MMS, and 750MB of data.
Even with my current hospital visits where I'm tethered to the lappy using the net for the entire 4 hour stay I still don't hit my data limit, and I'm not that sociable so I don't get anywhere near my talktime.
Another plain advantage in my eyes is that if I do have to call customer services (a very rare occasion), I get to talk to someone in Leeds rather than someone based over 5000 miles away whose 3rd language barely comes close to English.
That is worth £12 per month inc any day of the week in my eyes IMHO.
Anyway, back to the OP.....
My mate is on O2 and so am I, his phone signal/connectivity was at best erratic this afternoon, mine was fine as I was making and receiving calls while his phone was down.
I guess O2 are having a repeat performance of handset registration issues based on the fact we were sat next to each other in the same pub when this was happening.

As always, NiffNaff's troubles are of their own making. Again. Twice in a week, getting a bit tedious now ;D
-
O2 was absolute shite in The South East today Del. Both my lads were/are having issues.
I will add though, 3 is very good but there are big holes in their coverage down your way ::)
-
Looked at O2 for a company phone, and the packages were woeful :-\
Was originally a Cellnet customer, but when they became O2 I started receiving £100+ bills. Switched to T mobile 12 years ago and haven't looked back :y Current contract is unlimited calls, data and texts.
My data usage varies between 8 and 14GB per month... ::)

I assume you must have your Adult Content Lock on the Sim switched off to hit those download figures. ;D ;)

I keep looking around for a better provider. But calls/texts are the priority for me, hence has to be O2 based, as Vodafone is utter shite around these parts, and the EE duo and 3 are OK around most of the towns, but non existent when you go rural around here.
If only O2 could get their 3G coverage up (its a software setting on the majority of their cells, but the backhauls aren't up to the job), I'd be a happy boy.

;D Not saying :P

As you're no doubt aware, O2 was hit with what they claim is a congestion problem affecting just 1% of their punters. O2 are notorious for not saying what caused problems, and under estimating who was effected, as was proved twice last year when they tried and failed to upgrade their Ericsson subs database.
Poor NiffNaffers were hit with 2 further outages previously, both relating to failed upgrades, plus they got hit by the O2 SNAFU.
