    Here we go again... hope it's not down as long as the last time. Normally a great provider, but this lark is a pain in the h*le. :mad:

    Same here on tesco (Dundalk). Girlfriends on 48 and she's off as well. Looks like o2 ****ed up again. It took twelve hours to fix last time.

    Folks their whole network is obviously down, I don't think there's any need for anyone to say 'down in Aghascraw'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,589 ✭✭✭Fr. Ned


    It's down in Aghascraw too.......
















    Sorry.....I'll get me coat........

    Joke at this stage. More outages in the last few months than I had in 7 years with meteor. Seems random. The OH joined tesco 5mins after me but has near full service.

    I went to Meteor after the last outage but had a dealbreaker issue that they weren't willing to admit to or fix - they'd rather blame my two handsets. So I'm back with Tesco and true to form, they're down again.

    I really don't know where else to go. The Vodafone coverage is poor in my apartment and I have a strong distrust of 3, due to the many horror stories I've read. I'd say O2 are about the only ones left but their billpay plans are an absolute rip off.

    The network is down. Texts go through the network even if you send them using the house internet using the house electricity.

    WhatsApp can use your Wi-Fi connection if available. I know because I'm using it at the moment! SMS and MMS use the network, of course.

    Typical Tesco run the bill up with 02 then decide they want a better deal hold off on payments till they get what they want because of the size of the customer base noticed they were quick enough to over charge on my last bill 3 work phones down and not a car out working thanks Tesco I'm away from ye for this one

    I hate to say it but I wouldn't use anyone but Vodafone or O2 for business purposes. :)

    I'm only a start up its a easy number to remember but will be changing network vodaphone package is looking like a good one. Going to put one phone on a different network and set them to divert when uncontactable hope this might help if this happens again don't even know if it is possible
