I'm quite sure o2 discontinued unlimited data for existing customers on 1st September 2010.
I believe you're now limited to 500MB. not that i know of, if so they haven't been very strict with it for me yet. Mind you i don't even recall having any notification of them doing this either. |

Yep, i posted that earlier through my tethered iPhone. Seeing as its 'all you can eat' they don't really care what you do with it, even PAYG.

Just checked on my o2 and my unlimited web bolt on is free and active with no end date, for the record I did 1.9gb last month. I suppose it helps my contract renewal date is listed as sometime in August 2007. ![]() As I said all these modern o2 tariffs are really poor value by comparison. |

The One Plan is a different proposition. The PAYG AYCE deal we are currently offering does not allow tethering and therefore the use of a smartphone in this way would be outside of our terms and conditions. We’re keen to for you to guys to make the most of AYCE data on PAYG but we don’t support tethering on this plan.
http://blog.three.co.uk/2011/03/07/a...ge-2/#comments They may say they enforce it, but i have used it plenty and not heard any warnings, and if they were that bothered, they should block it in the first place on the phone. |

O2 Tariff includes Wi-Fi hotspots, tethering and 50 MMS
Tethering - So does VF, I'm tethering now 50MMS - Use email and besides, 50MMS does not justify the £15 price difference |

I'm on Virgin Mobile (Sim Only)
I get 600 Cross Network Mins 3000 Virgin to Virgin Mins 3000 Texts 1GB Data (I tether too, tethering now via android Wi-Fi Hotspot App) for the grand sum of £10. O2 for the same £10 (plus 50p) will offer me 100 mins 500 texts No Same network calls and for the 1GB data (that I get and use at the moment) i'd have to pay another £10. O2 Signal is Poop and now their tariffs are too. I know many people have slated Virgins Signal in the past but I've no issue and from next months they'll be sharing Everyone Everywhere's (Tmobile & Orange) signal. |

I've just commented on their blog, telling them I thought their pricing was way off. Guess what they've removed it!

Yeah they aren't keen on negative posts on their blog. They also disregarded my tweet to them pointing out that with those tariffs the other networks would be laughing at them

Orange are revising their plans on 1st April. Definately not going the way of O2!

They don't seem *that* different to me... Still not great, of course.
e.g. My current O2 plan: O2 35, 18 months (iPhone). £35.74pcm (£35 under the old VAT) for 300 minutes, unlimited SMS, & 500MB data. Equivalent new plan: £31pcm over 18 months for 300 minutes & unlimited SMS, plus a further £6pcm for 500MB data, 20 MMS, and tethering. Total of £37pcm, rather than £35/£35.74, for the same allowances as my current plan, but also plus 20 MMS & tethering. |

The other networks will either be laughing their socks off tonight or trying to weigh up if they can get away with it too...

If your unsure on why you were banned, you'd probably be best asking admin, if only to make sure you don't do whatever it was that got you banned again |

Are O2 an advertiser here ![]() I was looking for it as I posted in it. I have also posted on the O2 blog but seems they don't like negative comments! So just remove your post! All i said to O2 was they are pricing themselfs out the market. This only fuels after the poor traffic management that has been put on their new broadband packages. As a company they are now offering very poor products on both. Their 3G covereage is the worst across the UK. Highest price, poorest 3G network what are they trying to do?? I can see the other networks having many new customer over the next few months! Poor show O2! |
