bonovox as far as i remember i believe you are on O2 pay as you go? I believe they do have a fair limit due on da pay and go service. and no O2 does not share its masts. and golden yes nothing wrong with sharing masts however it also shows how the networks are struggling too, to finance der own masts or make them stronger themselves, that is why they have decided to share. thats what i think tho.

Yeah not long back i was in Happisburgh in Norfolk. My brother is on Orange and could barely get 1 bar. Myself on O2 i got 5 most of the time. Thats why mast sharing is good. Though for some reason where i live last night the O2 network was dead for 4 hours. I kept getting NO ACCESS TO NETWORK and 3G signal kept jumping back to GSM. Then when i tried to connect via GSM it would not. Then i could not even make a call. Kept saying busy tone. Now i never ever used to get any of them problems with O2. Just lately its getting worse. Something to do with heavy iphone users i think.

02 used to share masts with 3 I got told this from a
3 Advisor in store last year, now there sharing with T-Mobile.

Do Vodafone share with anyone or do they have there own masts in conjuction with higher 3.5G services?

Miyagi can you please drop the ders and write correctley I hope you don't write this when your instore, I know this is a forum but as a employee you should be writing punctionally lol

Ps, you keep saying it's Unlimited capped now at 500MB data which 02 offer, however a few months ago it was 200MB, ok so they have upped it but you cannot go over 500MB as Bono has mentioned that you have to pay per MB otherwise so this isn't really unlimited!

Networks shouldn't be saying this it's mis-reading I think!
anyway back on subject im not really intrested in 02 data flaws

Miss UK when have i ever said that I work in an O2 store. So please get that fact right. On a 2nd point where is the proof that you have got that o2 offer 500MB as a limit when it comes to data? They may offer a limit on prepay but they do not offer one on contract. Again Miss UK your talking as if you know your facts but your talking complete cr4p again to be honest.

I really hate people who think they know it all about a network and its products and services when to be honest they know nothing at all about it. And for some reason you tend to get a kick out of talking cr4p again and again about a service that you have complete no knowledge about. Even you you have been pointed this wrong by daedlus and myself on many occasions. As for how i write in this forum why is that of a concern for you?

I to be honest think this personal vendetta you have against O2 just because you got charged for little bit of data long time ago is getting out of controll. Think you have an obsession in proving your right when your wrong when it comes to topics that you have no knowledge about without the complete truth.


FOR THE ATTENTION OF MISS UK THE FOLLOWING:

You are billed for the amount of data that travels over the data network. Please note that your bill may include charges for re-sent data packets and packets added to control the flow of data over the network.

Any limit mentioned as in 500MB? Nope I don't think so. So where did you get your info from Miss UK?

hang on a minute theres a thread that you say you work for them,
2 ive seen many 02 customers going on that it's capped!

why are you getting so uptight about this if you don't work for them?

and with my ex account data charges yes I wasn't happy cos they offered shitty data when I was on them, they have upped that now but im still hearing issues.

anyway this whole data thing is boring change the subject!
