O2’s 3G network issues persist under iPhone strain in UK

“The mobile phone network O2 has received thousands of complaints from frustrated iPhone customers who are unable to use their phones properly,” Kat Higgins reports for Sky News Online.

“Messages posted on social media website Twitter say customers have been unable to log on to the internet or use their applications on the Apple handsets for the third day running,” Higgins reports. “Many of the frustated O2 customers said they received a message saying “could not activate cellular data network” when they attempted to check emails or use another internet service.”

Higgins reports, “In a statement O2 told Sky News Online: “We are aware of an issue currently impacting data access for some of our customers. ‘We have identified a fault with the allocation of IP addresses and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. We apologise to any affected customers.'”

Higgins reports, “O2 has had a number of outages over the past year – the problems are thought to be down to strain from the large amount of people using its network.”
