Default O2 UK Network Died!

This is the worse service provided by O2, where both my Pay and Go, and my Pay Monthly service provided by O2 UK died probably at about 7pm on Boxing Day! It has indeed caused loads of inconvenience, as I thought the person I was phoning didn't switch his phone on. Also, it has wasted loads of my time to travel around town, and using the public phone to keep in touch! It's absolutely dreadful that O2 didn't provide any warning on the distruption. It's almost 3 hours since I discovered the problem, but the service is still down.

Hmm. That sucks.

Could it be due to network overload on Boxing Day?

Maybe you should check their service level agreement.

LOL!! You should tell them that fortunately, the management and technical team running O2 does not run any airline....
