It's an app that will allow you to make calls over wifi regardless of phone signal. So as long as you are connected to wifi you can make and receive calls.

Have you tried turning 3G on & off, airplane mode on & off, you may not be in a good area for 3G or maybe people are hogging it, check the O2 coverage checker for 3G in your area

If it is The Works for iPhone your APN should be set to idata.o2.co.uk

 

If it is just The Works, your APN should be mobile.co.uk

 

Check which bolton it is on MYO2?
