O2 from an Unbiased Customer Perspective - My Online Diary

I've decided to take a Refresh deal on a 4G phone and will treat everything as a normal O2 customer, ie, phone will be O2 locked & branded, I will not root or jailbreak, if anything goes wrong I will contact live chat in the first instance, repairs (if necessary) will be done through O2 etc....

I haven't decided which phone as yet, but it will probably be a mid range handset and I will document my experience from ordering, through to setting up & using, the quality of CS and my thoughts on 4G along with the whole "O2 user journey" throughout my contract period.

I will be completely unbiased and I have the option to compare all services to the other 2 networks I use on a regular basis (Three & EE) along with GG which my wife uses.....

I'm hoping it will be a pleasant and enlightening journey slight_smile

It should be auto applied to my account on the 17th. Basically, because I am on the top data allowance I don't get the data upgrade that others do but the £5 I pay for the bolt on is reduced to FREE slight_smile

No idea.... It took Becky a few mins to go and find out from her Manager about personal customers as the new tariffs were only introduced yesterday and CS hadn't been informed of the changes....
