O2’s Bad Signal: Hmmmm …

You know, I’ve GOT to admit, I’ve had an EMAIL … !

Well …

You’d be surprised if I didn’t.

Well, you would.

And … ?

Funnily enough, it’s one from O2: after I’d sent them an email about the bad signal in my area.

Just so you know … ?

There’s a bad phone mast in the area.

Which explains the lack of signal … !

But …

Well, here’s the email they sent me.
Hello Paul

Now, I’m sure you’ve noticed the flaw in their suggestions, there, haven’t you … ?

25p a minute to use a landline to contact them? On my income, that’s NOT good!

Or 5p a minute … on a phone that CAN’T connect to their network on a guaranteed regular basis …

Because an O2 phone mast has gone down … !

Gosh, I HOPE that mast gets fixed soon.

SOMEBODY’S going to get a rocket … !

Have a look at their website for the number they give ONLY for calls from overseas. That's nonsense! That is their real number you know.

So it will be down as +44 1277 000 000 or something. Just ring that number.

(Having worked promoting and 0845 service I should know these things)!
