Good morning all,
We are aware our customers are unable to use data this morning.
Our technical teams are working on the issue with high priority. We are really sorry and working as hard and as fast as we can to fix this.
Please keep an eye on our status checker: http://o2.uk/ServiceStatus
Latest Update:
Our 3G and 4G data services are performing as normal. Our technical teams are continuing to monitor service performance closely. We will be updating our customers later today on how we will make yesterday’s data service issue up to them and we’d once again like to thank our customers for their patience.
A small proportion of customers have reported issues sending text messages. We can see that the vast majority are being sent and received successfully and our technical teams are investigating. Our 3G and 4G data services are performing as normal.
We are finalising how we make it up to our customers and will be contacting them later today about this.
The Facebook mention around us giving out £75 compensation isn't correct and didn't come from us.

My iphone is still not able to send or receive messages from friends and family who do not have the iMessage service. My messages keep bouncing back, it has been 4-5 days days without this service. I received a message from O2 on Friday to apologise for the situation and saying that a credit of two days would be given to account, but I no sooner received it then I lost contact again with friends and family. Please advise on situation.

This incident really does show how many people use domestic instead of business tariffs. I wonder how much o2 lose through this?

Its more of a case people don't think they are "a business case" so just take on what they believe is right or because most of it is personal use, they'll use it for the odd work related call. Think there is a case of being able to claim that back from tax returns but depends on your tax status e.g. self-employed.
And lets not forget, business tariffs are less attractive to people so they take the risk and given the reliability generally, that works in the favour of the risk taken versus cost savings. Which they now realise, the SLA's for consumers is pretty much non-existent compared to the business ones so any claims for lost business is going to be treated appropriately.
