4G Text Campaign

[Anonymous]

Hey Guys,

Just to confirm that we’re contacting our customers who currently have 4G ready phones as we're giving them access to 4G for nothing!

All the details on this are here http://go.o2.co.uk/got4G

Only those who currently have a 4G phone but are on 3G plans can take advantage of this offer.

The messages you may receive about this will vary depending on whether you’re currently in an area that supports 4G or not. We’ll grant all customers who own a 4G ready phone access to this offer so you’re good and ready when 4G comes to your town.

We want as many people enjoying 4G as we can, at the moment our 4G could cover 17 million people in the UK!

This is part of our 2014 4G master plan, if you have any questions or thoughts- Let us know!

If you are one of the 600,000 customers who will enjoy free 4G, please do share some speed tests with the community too!

Thanks

Brad

Just appeared.

Not sure when as I had to scroll down to see it. (though it's in summary)

(Read somewhere that '3' might be buying/merging with o2 in 2014 - more potential musical chairs after o2 Home BB sold off to Sky)

Why is 3G faster??

I think 4g is not quite mature enough yet.

Just set up my free 4G bolt on with live chat, they assured me the bolt on is free and more importantly will remain free, my data allowance remains the same.

Afternoon,

Does anyone have any idea what the timescale is for notifying eligible punters?

I'm sat in an office in Nottingham being mercilessly abused by 5 eligible colleagues who have all received their texts and i'm the only one who hasn't (5s user). Every time I check something on my phone the cry goes up that the info is 'out of date'. People are offering to call me with the latest football scores in case I can only see Saturday's etc etc.

It's so tiresome I might have to go on holiday if this carries on much longer...

No all we know is that it's a staggered text sending roll out
