O2 32GB (64GB with Volt) 5G data , Unltd min, text, EU roaming = £8pm /12m (+ £11 Topcashback)

Hot: If it expires post-April
Cold: If it expires pre-April

No one should take a new contract out now UNLESS it is exempt from the April price rise. Better to wait till then and effectively only have to pay 1 mon of an increase, rather than 9-11 months worth..

no TCB if you're already an o2 customer and extending/upgrading your SIMO deal

How do you do this if you're out of contract, but already with O2 ? Thanks

Just joined them, really poor network. Wouldn't recommend. Coverage is poor everywhere I go.

I have to say I have just left O2, I was with Virgin for 20+ years before they switched from EE to the O2 network and transferred my account, in the 18 months I was with O2 they were by far the worst company I have ever had the displeasure to deal with, the app stopped working, the website didn't work, the live chat was worse than useless and just kept sending me around in circles, customer service were appalling, eve the local O2 shop was no use until I refused to leave until they sorted out my issues, I switched a couple of weeks ago now and they are still calling me to ask for opinions (something I couldn't get when I was with them) when I tell them how rubbish they were they just put the phone down. the coverage was terrible the data was hit and miss and I had trouble getting a signal that wouldn't drop out and disconnect me during a call. I am now with ID SIM only 50gb - 5G unlimited everything else for £8, I was paying O2 £21 for the same. My advice is avoid O2 (edited)

Advising people to 'Stay away from O2' as a blanket statement is not good advice. Each network has better coverage in different areas. I had previously had '3' and it was terrible in my area, and O2 worked well.

As for this offer, all the details I have been sent tell me that the price will update at the end of March 2025, so if O2 tries anything crafty, I have printed all this information.

Avoid - the network is unusably slow. O2’s 5G is infinitely worse than Plusnet (EE’s) 4G.

The data works way better abroad when roaming than while at home, which says a lot as they normally throttle roaming... That’s basically the only advantage of O2 at this point. (edited)

Anyone know if existing customers still get Disney plus on this deal? I'm already paying £8/month so no point switching if not.

After all the will it, won't it debate, the price will go up in April after all.

Monthly price of your Airtime Plan will increase each April from April 2025 by the Retail Price Index rate of inflation announced in February each year plus 3.9%. If RPI is negative, we'll only apply the 3.9%. See o2.co.uk/prices.

Suggests this will be good through until next Aprils price rises?

Poor as I got 80GB with Volt for £8pm

Thanks - just commenting so that I can come back later

Obviously networks vary depending on location, but moving back to O2 after a few years of EE and Three it seems to be really over subscribed. Many places I have used it I have 3 4G bars or better and it is like I am on 2G or worse. This has been mainly across Wirral, Liverpool and Southport directions. The customer service is also non-existent. The “chat” function requires you to install their app and then you message and they just never reply.

Can’t wait until the end of my 12 months and am getting close to paying to end it as it is slow. (edited)

On O2 in Newcastle and coverage been OK and enjoying free coffee at greggs or sausage/Bacon sandwich or sausage roll on Friday or Saturday (only one per week)

I have read through it twice and I just want to know if it's 32gb total or every month for just £8? seems too good to be true

Anyone found a unlimited data deal with O2 im with three at the minute and they have slowed the 5g speeds down its not worth having it any more

How do u go thru tcb and get the £8 price?

Interesting how O2 (and others) are still claiming 5G data. Their cell sites might be 5G kit, but the core network is still an over subscribed 4G mess.

Only Vodafone have proper standalone 5G in limited areas of the UK afaik.

O2 website says RPI index wont happen until 2025 but the contract they sent me through says it will happen in April 2024. Asking O2 to clarify. Hot deal though

I tend to 'upgrade' my sim-only contract with O2 a few times a year via Uswitch as it usually means I get the same/similar data, at the same or a cheaper price per month, with some Disney+ thrown in.

This deal doesn't seem to come with the usual 3 months of Disney+ free now. I wonder if they've decided to remove that from these Uswitch deals now?

TBF I've had a good run, as I've never had to pay for Disney+ since it began, with just the odd break in having it.

Why would i get this ? I have 2 SIMs already under my O2 account and wanted a 3rd for my daughter.
