Does anyone know how long this will go on for?  I think I am on day 10 of no service at home and it's driving me mad.

I don't think that the status can be trusted as this is the result from my postcode search but I have no signal at home and haven't had since 2nd October.

Not surprising if the mast is down, I see nothing wrong with that page.

 

At least you know they're working on it.

"At least you know they're working on it."

I don't see that anywhere on the page. This has been going on for weeks. I've gone from full signal at home to no signal. I'm paying for a service that I'm not receiving.
I'd be a bit happier if they gave some idea of when it might be fixed.

If it's reported there you can assume it's being repaired.

 

You cannot get a time to fix quoted unfortunately.

I agree with you, have just had another response, possibly to the letter I wrote:

Obviously the couldnt reach me, my phone has no service!  Please note towards the end of the email that he will apply the necessary credit to the three accounts in our household.  Probably worth writing a letter as I did.

The frustration we are all feeling is that there has been no cover since 2.10.12, almost 3 weeks now.  It's all very well going onto the site that says there is a problem with your mast and someone is working on it, but no time frame is given.  The other really annoying thing is that it doesnt seem possible to phone someone on a telephone number and have a proper answer to the problem.  Each person you speak to (if you are lucky enough to do that) gives a different answer.  I am going to be asking for a whole month back if we are still off signal at the beginning of November.

No doubt there'll be an "expert" along shortly, to tell us that O2 don't give compensation for network issues!
