Three of them sent out by O2, despite the fact that they were coming to my billing address they still managed to send it to the wrong place twice!

thats crazy.. I wonder if the carrier sends him one after lol...

well i find that o2 have better signal in some places but on the motor way with three uk I get a good 3G signal where as with o2 I dont but then threeuk relies on 3G signals to get a phone one as well so... they both have their up and down sides but I really want to try EE as well but will wait for reviews because it seems like they only offer contracts and no pay as you go

i think all the networks have their black spots as regards signal,i spoke to some friends who are on 02 and they have complaints too about signal,i get a good signal with 3 on the motorway too,thing is i find 3's customer service excellent and that goes a long way with me.

I found their customer service to be good and bad, if I ring them its useless but they answer tweets very quickly and in store are very helpful.

I finally got one from O2 a couple of days after the one arrived from Ivy, which was almost three weeks after I got my iPhone!

Thats a long time to go with out a phone! correct me if I am wrong but it seems like you cant just cut down the micro sim to a nano sim because it looks like the actual chip was made smaller?

but any way that three weeks must of felt like for ever lol
