Hi,

 

 

Does the service status say you should get 3g.

 

http://status.o2.co.uk/

 

Is 3g turned on in your phones settings ?

 

Do others in your area on O2 receive 3G ?

 

A help thread to work through

If an Android phone check in Settings and see if "Network Mode" is set to receive WCDMA. If set to GSM only it will only ever receive 2G.
