4G access at no extra charge.

[Anonymous]

Last week I received a text message telling me that from 27 June I was given 4G access at no extra charge.

On looking in My O2, Bolt Ons section, I can see 4G access and that it is free and is active and has no end date.

Although 4G is not in my area yet. I was wondering if I will need a new sim card, so that I can receive 4G when in a 4G coverage area?

I have an iPhone 5s.

Is 4G at no extra charge available to PAYG customers?

I tried to request it through Live chat but got nowhere. They just offered me the £15 a month deal...

I've got a 4G phone, 4G SIM and live and work in London, so I'd really like to be able to use 4G! Other providers are giving their customers 4G at no extra charge and I know O2 has done for some customers too

Hi

You need to choose a big bundle tariff on Payg.
I'm on the £20 option.

You can choose one through your myo2

Edit to add http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Welcome-News/4G-Text-Campaign/m-p/621674/highlight/true#M7499 this was for Pay Monthly Customers only.

I think it starts at £10 for PAYG doesn't it?

MI5 said "I think it starts at £10 for PAYG doesn't it?"


For 3G data speed connection,,,yes £10

[MI5]

Ah yes, £10 for 500mb on 3g or £15 for 1gb 4g

So basically it isn't possible to get 4G at no extra charge if one (like me) only tops up £10 per month...

What a shame. Might have to move to Tesco Mobile

I'm afraid not No.

Have you considered sim only :

Thanks for all the replies.

It is a bummer. So it's only Pay monthly who get it free?

Believe it or not I've been with o2 for 15 years!

Might do simplicity, might leave...

An avenue of choice open to you.

Try to see it as that nothing is free !
