No signal- cancelling contract

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hey 

I've been with o2 for around 10 years in the same area and always had perfect signal. However, from around February this year I have had absolutely no signal at all. O2 have said the area has always had no signal (lies) although the status checker says it is fine. 
They suggested me using the TUGO service using my WiFi but this obviously resricts me to using my phone at home only and defeting the purpose of a "mobile" phone. Also, what is the point in me paying £20 a month (over charged for what the phone is) to use a free service and use abosultely none of my minutes, texts or data allowenece. I can do this for FREE from my Ipod! 


The TUGO service barely works, I am practically unable to use my phone and have 7 months left on this stupid contract. 

Am I able to just cancel the contract and move to someone else? I know for a fact the Vodafone signal is still perfect here and I've just about had enough of the customer service of o2. I refuse to pay another month for a service that I am unable to use; I am basically throwing my money away.

Thank you! 
I am currently writing to the complaints service again to state everything that has happened and I will take it from there
How do you go about attempting to leave for free?

Given the circumstances you need to tell them that it would be unreasonable to expect you to have to pay to leave your contract.

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.

Have a thorough read of o2's Terms and Conditions.

Whilst I would recommend getting the handset unlocked whilst you are an o2 customer (as it is free for contract customers) please be aware IF o2 allow you to leave your contract early they are likely to ask for your handset back.

Good luck and please let us know how you get on.

I am aware of this, thank you. 
It's highly likely that I would end up getting a new phone anyway as the contract is up for renewal towards the end of this year

Hopefully get a reply tomorrow due to the bank holiday today and see how it goes from there and what they suggest.

Hi! 
They have agreed to cancel my contract without the termination fee but have asked me to reply to their email to confirm this. As far as I'm aware the mycare@o2mail.co.uk is not a monitored account so how is it possible for me to confirm my cancellation through replying to this?

I've replied to your other thread:

If you have any reference or case numbers from O2 I would include that in the subject line!
