O2 Network
in [UK Mobile]

From: Lynn W on 26 Apr 2010 09:44 Anyone having trouble with the O2 network. I have been speaking to O2 for the past week, regarding not being able to make or receive calls intermittently. They sent me out a new sim and I still have the same problem so I think it is probably network related. Anyone else had problems I am in Cheshire.

Maybe it's because it's an iPhone not a phone? -- Adrian C

O2 have confirmed they do seem to have some Network problems at the minute.

I often had problems making calls or calls dropping for no apparent reason when I would have good signal. Similarly, incoming calls would sometimes go to voicemail when I would be in the local town centre, for example, with a really good signal. I guess the network was often too busy? Data was also far from a fault-free service. It was good whilst it worked (no real speed complaints from me, as many people report), but there were days sometimes when it would not work at all. Since moving to Vodafone the service has been fault-free as it was when I used them in the past. I'm not saying that everything about Vodafone is great, but a phone is meant to function as a phone and with O2 that wasn't always the case! Forgive the rant!

Used to disparage it as an 'iToy' a year ago on a certain iphone newsgroup littered with the warfare. I do like Apple things (ipod Touch / iTunes & iTunes XML & API under Win32) but personally my mobile phone has to be cheap, reliable, fuss free and disposable. It's also got to fit in the front pocket of my jeans. I see none of that (yet) in the iPhone - but it's a fun thing none the less. Enjoy it. One day they will make one for me :) -- Adrian C |
