Email from O2 saying my phone is 3g when it is 4g

[peter3197]

Why have I had an email saying one of my phones are not 4g compatible when both of them are running on 4g.

O2 error

Not unusual these days

They are just warning you that you may be affected once they turn off 3G

[Enlli]

Depends if they are PAYG which switch to 3G to make calls

[MI5]

Will still go via 2g like in the good old days.

[Enlli]

That depends whether O2 can find someone to fire up the boilers 

[MI5]

Or if O2 can be **bleep** to keep PAYG going at all.

[jonsie]

I can't understand why they do keep it going

Same as I can't understand why anyone would pay £10/month on PAYG and think it's not a contract by any other name

[MI5]

Only useful for people unable to qualify for a contract I guess.

[Enlli]

Many other networks 30 day deals don't require credit check if you pay by recurring card payment.

Maybe O2 will drop big bundles and keep the rolling plans. Might be the way to go
