no phone calls all day.  

Sometimes a signal and then gone. Other people also having same probs on o2.
I left a voicemail with a custy on o2 and she did not recieve it.

Called o2 and they have left a message saying there are problems.
After googling o2 down.....it seems to be accross the country that the whole network is affected.

Just noticed it's on BBC news

Yes well you might not be far off there.
First time ever I've not been able to to pick up my virgin/ntl world e-mails from using wifi today. I've had to go through a 3rd party supplier to see them

This all comes about when some dackhead techi thinks "I know it works well but I'll just make it a bit better" and all he achieves is complete close down of the network. Virgin media seems to employ a load of these know it all computer wizards
