My 16 year old has been having a nervous breakdown for the last 6 hours since I kicked him out of bed  ::)

We're GiffGaff here (runs on O2 infrastructure). I've been utterly unaffected, its been working perfectly.

Mrs TB hasn't been about to use hers at work all week, although O2 have got this down as a mast fault in her area, so thats unrelated. She got home yesterday, no signal. Swapped SIMs over, fault went with her SIM. Cleaned SIM with surgical spirits, it worked again. I did notice that it took longer to register on the network. Although O2 won't release info (I suspect for fear of opening themselves for legal actions), I suspect they lost a lot of their capacity for registering onto the network.

I charged up my works Vodafone yesterday, as a fallback. 10,000 text msgs (not been on for a while), including a load from Mum.  You'd think she'd know my normal mobile number ;D

My GG phone was in and out of service all day yesterday as I was travelling ::)

It did have a direct impact on our business but (fortunately) I have another handset too (which is actually my main one) :y

Unfortunately Cleggy, my work is reliant on mobile phones ::)

Whatever it is... I didn't do it

Then it is a useful tool of the trade  ;) :y

You know what I mean, the muppets with a ring tone so loud as to break the sound barrier with some tunless music, who shout so loud that they don't need a phone in the first place, deserve an ASBO. ;D ;D Worst of all, the ignorant prats who cease all conversation when their mobile rings even when being served in a shop etc. One of our local pubs is the best, there are signs banning mobile phones, break this rule at your peril.... there are at least six nailed to the wall including an IPhone ;D ;D :y :y Keep it on silent and join the smokers smokers if you need to use it :y

There was a item on the local TV news here the other day about a local college doing some mock interviews with students preparing them for the world of work. One lad couldn't understand why the interviewer walked out when the lad answered his mobile in the interview. Blooming heck!

Well, I was stranded in Munich (thanks, Sleazyjet >:() and my phone decided to munch through its' battery in a couple of hours repeatedly trying to connect. No flight home, no hotel, no mobile phone. :(

Well, the retards did eventually get me home... 24 hours late. >:(

Me and a couple of other stranded did have to step in and take over crowd control, though..  ::)

Walking out into a crowd of 200 pi$$ed off travellers and saying "well, I've found 15 hotel rooms, so can 15 of you please get into that bus over there" doesn't work, apparently, and the Sleazyjet rep didn't have any better ideas. ;D

But Mr Wood, you never seem to have a mobile phone. Its either flat, or mislaid ;D

Well, you are very lucky then, seeing as their handset registration system was down for 20hrs in the week ::)
