Disgusted in price rises once a contract is signed

Anonymous
Not applicable

I think it is disgusting that O2 decide to raise the bills with so called inflation, we only sign on for up to 2 years and usually have crap service, but we cant then get a reduction in areas that have poor coverage, if they can't wait until customers have the choice to come over, or renew at new tarrif rates then its a bad show and just infuriates customers for such an appitance. Shame on them....

The beauty of being out of contract is that you will have that option. Just be sure they have good coverage at home, work and your normal areas of travel.

What promises?

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Seems that O2 is on a self destruction course...

So THREE dont charge for 0800 calls (O2 do)

with THREE you can use your UK allowances abroad (O2 make you pay extra)

THREE dont have annual price increases (O2 do and seem to think we should be grateful for it).

OFCOM have made some strict rulings about price increases so O2 obviously think that they can rip off existing customers.

 

Well O2 , guess where Im going in June when my contract is up.

Lets just hope that THREE dont take over O2, or at least if they do then they'll make sane decisions for their customers in future.

Just on the matter of OFCOM as per Bill_H above.

The OFCOM ruling made clear that mid term contract rises WERE allowed but only if they were advised to customers in advance. If you look at all of o2's advertising it is there.

None of us on here liked it and still don't but the fact is that legally o2 have done nothing wrong.

Of course morally is a different argument

By the very definition of a "mobile" phone yiou can move around and use your data where there is a signal.

Or move to a network that does give you data at home (not much point if you have wifi).

Or take a tariff with less data next time if you're not using it?

Bonkers how many people don't even look at their contract before they sign.
Go on take a look, it's on there about price rises.
You'll find your contract folded in half near your smartphone box.
