Brilliant rant from David
I live in London E2 – less than half a mile from the City, the largest financial district in the WORLD and I consistently have NO SERVICE. Texts don’t arrive until the following day, people who call me go straight to voicemail, and visual voicemail is CONSTANTLY ‘temporarily’ unavailable. O2 are horrendous. [...]
O2 are horrendous! Comment #O2fail

It’s not just me!

Straight to voicemail
Today I mislaid my iPhone. No problem I’ll call it I thought. Call, straight to voicemail, three times in a row. Eventually I find the phone in my bedroom, switched on and fully functional, just a marginal o2 signal! O2 fails again.
O2 was crap at Glastonbury according to Geeklawyer!
Received as a comment from Geeklawyer: I’ve got an iPhone which is lovely: O2 sucks donkey balls. Will unlock it and revert to T-Mobile. Spent 5 days at Glastonbury entirely unable to Twitter or use email. Non-O2 users had no problems.

As brilliant as the iPhone undoubtedly is in the arena of Twitter-obsession, in London at least there are problems. In what must be one of the most connected cities in the world, the network regularly fails [...]
Without doubt 02 is the worst network I have ever been on!
A comment from Martin:
You don’t have to live in London to have rubbish service. Without doubt 02 is the worst network I have ever been on. The iPhone experience is very poor as the signal constantly drops from 3G throughout Birmingham and the Black Country. This means that apps don’t work properly as many require [...]
