The answer to your ? is no though.

To be honest I have BT Broadband at home so get free access to over 5 million wifi hotspots. Whilst there are some that have capacity issues, it is still far better than 11000 with o2.

I believe o2 are trying to build up their wifi offer so as to cover their backsides regarding their poor data coverage (65% 4g coverage my backside).

Your opening post makes it sound like your an O2 employee announcing some sort of new campaign

Nope. When I find a press release which I think we may be interested in on here I tend to write in a standard format.

A line about the thread and a link as we all like proof on here.

We have a couple of o2 hotspots here in Newmarket - Argos and Toni and Guy hairdressers! You do look a bit suspicious in both doing a bit of surfing!

They need to get a lot more retailersinterested. Most of the big players are already covered by the likes of the cloud and BT. It's much easier and less trouble for me to use mobile data when out and about and all my frequented pubs seamlessly connect to the Cloud.

I just feel O2 have a long way to go in this respect.

I think o2 have a long way to go stop.
. Ever since Telefonica took control it has gone downhill
