Anonymous
Not applicable

When is the 3 /4G role out due to be complated Dec 15 or Dec 17 or longer 

 

Gaving thier current rate it will take 20 years

 

Was sold a s5 in June after being told by the sales persion 4g was due in Telford in september still no sign 

 

I now know why o2 won't publicise the 4g role out program its that slow

O2's national rollout is due for completion by 2017.

Previously o2 advised they were hoping to complete by 2015 however that is unlikely and o2 are no longer referring to it.

If you go to the status checker at status.o2.co.uk and put in either Telford or your postcode, if the Network Modernisation Programme has reached your area with upgrade in the next 3 months it will tell you there. (Fyi I have just checked Telford and no upgrade is currently showing. It states good indoor and outdoor 3g coverage currently).

The 4g rollout is a massive infrastructure project and will take time. You need to put it into perspective, can you do everything you need to do now on the 3g network or is 4g a deal breaker. If the latter then please follow @Bambino's advice @Anonymous

Is 4G available on any other network in your area? If so, and if it is important to you, maybe you should think about moving your mobile service if you feel the O2 rollout is too slow.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2

hi there @Anonymous 

 

Unfortunately there are no plans for the next few months to roll out 4G any time soon.... Who told you you were going to get it soon?

 

The only reliable information you are going to get is by registering to get updates....

Hope this helps:)

Always happy to support others and to try my best to assist. However it was not necessary to repost (almost) the whole of my post. Just a reference to it would be sufficient.

If however it is appropriate to quote my post please do the whole thing and not leave the last line which was as relevant as the rest. It is important we share high quality information for future Community Members who may search.

I decided on this occasion I quote your post as I found it helpful etc.

Unfortunately on my iPhone the reply box is ubra small which can make it tricky.

On my note 3 I can only "see" 3 lines at a time however when I quote which is not often I capture the lot so I don't see how iPhone would be any worse than that I have?

On an iPhone even tho I can request the 'Desktop View', so I can use the Rich Editor Bar I still cannot use the 'quote' button as it's simply not there.

I have to Copy and Paste which their in lies the problem.
