Is 02 text playing up

ney · 25-05-2005, 21:41

I sent a text ok at 9pm now my 02 mobile no letting me send text keeps saying failed after 20seconds. Anyone else getting this. I got a report back just now saying they got my text yet it said text failed. Tried a text text to mums o2 phone and that never sent. Mums phone seems to be texting ok its a few years old. Anyone getting probs on 02.

My text seems to be working again this morning. I had just under £2 in my mobile last night and it would not let me use my visa card to top up. It let me top up with £10 this morning though. I hate when the service plays up.

Because texting is free for some, and the people I text are usually busy during the day, so they read their messages when they switch their phone on. My messages started playing up from 9 last night, but one managed to get through the normal way ("message sent") this morning. It's now back to failing each time.

dimponk · 26-05-2005, 16:04

Seems to be working again now. Bets are now on for the next time this happens ...

ney · 26-05-2005, 19:30

Text working again with me but the odd text is taking a min or two to get to the other end at times. I now use the 02 delivery reports. I could not even top up my mobile last night had to do it this morning before I went to work.
