I can not believe that with all the time you have had to prepare and knowledge of how many people will be trying to pre order you still cant get your IT ready. NOT WORKING. GATEWAY ERROR 502. Sort it out or buying elsewhere.

O2 its all about planning resources and bandwidth on the day of go live. Really Simple. Hope your IT department don't get any bonus this year, Hard I know but so easily could have been avoided

I'm afraid this is happening everywhere my friend.

Nature of an Apple product launch.

Servers go into meltdown. 😞

O2 , another botched iphone launch !!!! when will you learn !!

 

I have been with you for 12 years and have upgraded to every new iphone since it's launch . EVERY time the same issues , nothing works 

- website keeps crashing 

- phone , i have been on hold for 35 minutes !!!!!!

- chat - on hold for 30 minutes 

 

Completly useless , I truly think it is time to go an see elsewhere .....

Frustrating times indeed.

We all as fellow customers appreciate the frustration.

I'm fairly confident the other networks and independents along with Apple Stores will be experiencing the same issues.

what annoys me is the fact i phoned at 8.01 exactly and I'm still on-hold, started a web chat and got half way through the process and they ended the chat.

 

I tried calling them off my work phone only to go through all the options and then be told by an automated message there to busy to take my call and hang up.

 

absolute joke, every year this happens. I understand it's a big launch, but it happens annually - surely they can prepare for it!! maybe if they'd released more information sooner rather than leaving it until 15 mins before the phones opened they wouldn't have agents on the phone so long explaining all the different tariffs as nobody can get on the website to see them!!

 

14 years I've been with O2 and it never ceases to amaze me that this still happens after they've experienced the same issues for years.

 

rant over

Everyone deserves to vent.

Info wouldn't have been released beforehand as their all playing who will go first at releasing the tariffs etc.

Hope your successful soon.

Think of o2's customer base and then factor in perhaps that only a couple of % are online trying to pre order right now = melt down.
