Remember when my father's company fitted mobiles in the cars. As far as he was concerned that was his last sanctuary gone

It seems that the type of lost coverage varied across the country - some lost everything, some just voice, some just data..

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

Jean says she has been given two free days by O2 as compensation for the outage. She is on O2, but didn't suffer any outage - WIN, WIN

She should go back to O2 and negotiate better compensation on the basis of the stress caused by not knowing whether she had any service problems or not.

I’m on with Tesco mobile, uses O2’s network, I lost all service, and it was quite nice not having my phone bleep and ring every 5 mins with a new email, text etc.

Got a text this morning from Tesco staging I’d get 2gb extra data free next month. Shame as I don’t manage to use all my data allowance as it is.

that's a good result, I am due to get less than £1.18 (the phone payment has to come out of that I am sure).

Something that has popped up on my facebook page, seems to be a good idea

I'm not a facebook user but perhaps who ever wrote that should contact O2 and put it to them as a suggestion and also the various radio and news stations. They can have my 82p
