Re: Analysis - O2 gaining traction in the UK broadband market
Scott,
Pleased you highlighted 02 in this piece!
I've recently had personal experience with the company's tech support and I was impressed!
The first-line support person that I spoke to on the phone was someone who was based in the UK and clearly did know his techie stuff - he wasn't just reading from a script.
And I've had others tell me they've been impressed by this side of things, too.
I also have to say that I reckon the pricing is pretty good.
I mean to say, I signed up to 3Mobile's cheapie mobile-broadband service in March, opting for £10 per month on an 18m contract with a 1GB download limit - anything more costs you an arm and a leg.
On top of that, I pay £25 per month to Virgin for a reasonably fast fixed internet service - downloads of close to 10mbps.
So that's £35 in total, compared to £20 with 02. Okay, 02's landline broadline is slower than my Virgin connection but that 3GB limit of 02's for mobile broadband seems to be far more reasonable than the 1GB I have with 3mobile.
Cheers
Bob
