      Barney Tabasco, 15 Nov 2011Do you want to withdraw your comment about O2's high attrit... moreThe only reason they have a low churn rate was all down to the exclusive rights on the iphone, now everyone is doing it that is changing, there is a lot of unhappy people with o2 due to the expensive upgrade prices and general customer service.

              Anonymous, 14 Nov 2011wow how far up voda are you lol? Could you explain how voda... moreNot particularly high up, I work in one of the Vodafone call centres, but we do get to know about all the ideas and plans Vodafone have.

              We are actually marked on quality for saying Britain's Best Network at the end of our calls. We have the most consistant coverage across the UK. o2 are a great network and I would recommend them to friends after Vodafone :)

                          Why can't O2 fix their 3G network first? It's still so patchy - in my city, it's not available or extremely weak in the centre. This is one of the reasons why I left them!

                            so does this mean that the three network will eventually turn to the four network if they switch to 4g? lol

                                All network companies promise to do XYZ and they are the ABC 123 in the technology what one should realise is that they in in for the MOOLA. As for people getting paid absurdly is true that happens worldwide the rich get richer and the poor suffer with humility.

                                  HRH George C, 14 Nov 2011Wise idea o2. Good areas to start the 4G network in too... moremiles ahead as usual?? funny their 3g is one of the worst on the market, and their cust attrition is sky high... as are acquisition figs and spectacular failure to show any tiny growth. o and btw i was a manager for them for 4 years.

O2 aren't miles ahead of the competi... moreIf Vodafone have already come with the idea then why have they not released it so technically o2 are miles ahead as there are not even any plans for voda to bring this out yet,

                                    I think 4g is going to be great for o2 and it will bring them more customers as they are clearly the best network in the UK :) !!

                                      Hope this comes up north! And we see 4G phones by the end of 2012. If they come in 2013 will be just in time for when my contract ends!! WOOP, lets hope everything goes to plan then :).

Could you explain how vodafone are the best? Why 1 in every 3 people are part of the O2 network (ands thats actively using it). We cover more of the UK than any other network. 98% land mass covered and 99.8% of the UK population covered too. Won many awards for customer services and also our network coverage, services and deals provided by the network. Vodafone is good but not the best.
