o2 network state

[paulbacon]

Seems where i live (West Yorkhire) o2 really are terrible. Where i work 3g randomly dies, and they know about it as their status says there is high demand in the area. Said that for 6 month now and nothing has changed. So has another area that i go to alot, and another place i visit i get a "network busy" message all the time. Seems they dont give a **** about adding capacity to their network to improve it Once my contract has expired im off to another network

The main priority should always be getting a decent signal.....

Well i can always get a decent signal, but no point if you cant use 3g, or send/receive texts as the network is busy

100% agree.
Get some PAYG SIMs from other networks and see which one suits your needs best.

Im hoping that once 02 launch 4G that it will free up some capacity on 3g, although not sure if that is wishful thinking?

In theory, yes.....
We'll have to wait and see in practice though....
