Just to make that statement a bit clearer, it was unreliable in YOUR area, not as a network in general.

Towards before leaving it was getting bad in most places. Where i work where i visit constant connection problems. Yes it started off bad where i live but that was the final straw when it started getting bad everywhere. Im sorry im not making this up and you know i tried everything but im sorry to say as far as im concerned O2 have turned into a very unreliable network. FACT. And dont go on saying OH THATS NOT WHAT 17 MILLION OTHER CUSTOMERS SAY. I could not give a toss cos no matter what i did the network was unreliable. I spent alot of money with O2 and in return got a below average service. |

*sigh*, again the network is not unreliable, it was just poor in your area. That included where you live, where you work and where you socialise.
If it's an 'unreliable' network, how come I've never had a single problem with it here? Or in most other places I've traveled to? I'm not saying its flawless, some customers do come in and say they live in an O2 dead spot, but personally, I have yet to come across one.

I wouldn't say there crap, but they have gone down hill considering they were the best network in my view in 2000, sumat bust the bubble in 2007 cos I was rather appalled at how they treated me.

Lol, just when did 'your say so' become fact to the entire country then?
Thats what I'm saying, 7 masts or not, you HAPPENED to have bad coverage in YOUR area. Surely the fact that I, my entire family and most of our customers don't have a problem at all indicates that the statement "ITS A CRAP NETWORK" as a whole is a false one?
Once again, to sum up, it was crap for YOU.

How can 7 masts be poor coverage i had the most solid signal you could ask for. It just never worked. And 17 million people is not the entire country remember 16 million on Orange and 17 million on Vodafone and so on. Ageing flagging network which cannot keep up with demand. Yawn :-S |

22 million and growing actually. The next nearest is Vodafone with about 18/19 million.
And not speaking for O2 here, or boasting, but just stating a fact: O2 have the biggest customer base of all the UK networks.
I've never found it to be crap, so I have no idea what all the fuss is about Bonovox, like I said, YOU just happened to have a bad experience.
It's like saying "I bought this can of Coca Cola and it was flat, all Coca Cola is crap because it's all flat and shit!"  All I'm saying is, while I agree O2 in your area is a bit poo, you can't really sit there and say the entire networks crap. If it was, I wouldn't be able to use my phone, now would I?

As i already said before i left all i got were connection problems in most places. In the end it was not just my area. Customer numbers were bigger on other networks years ago and yes its that way for O2 now. But just wait for few years down the line when it all goes tits up just like it did with Orange. Who gives a shit about customer numbers if the network is not upto scratch then its no good. Anyway enough said about this i wish to move on. |

I just want to add that where I live - Milton Keynes - the O2 network is excellent. I get 5 bars almost everywhere I go. In my experience, it's second only to Orange here. I used to have a contract on Vodafone and the signal was very poor; I would get no more than 2 bars anywhere.
in this area though, the worst is T-Mobile. At home, I'd have to stand in the back garden to send a text. |

I have not had any problems with signal on my O2 account. In the past month I have been all over the country and the only time I have had no signal was when I was on the cliff edge at Lizard point in cornwall.

See Bonovox? Just backs my statement up. It just annoys me when people say things like you said claiming its fact when it's clearly not.
