O2 UK’s roaming subscribers face network problem

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: O2 UK’s network has lately been causing difficulties for the roaming subscribers, making them unable to make calls while abroad. Subscribers roaming in Hong Kong, Paris, America and Canada were unable to access the network to make calls, in the second problem with the operator’s network in a week.
The operator says that the interruption is driven by routing of international call traffic.
The first problem that the operator faced was that its data network went down in UK on 21 July and subscribers across the nation were unable to send MMSs and pay monthly subscribers were unable access the internet.
On the O2 Digital News Centre site a comment was posted on 25 July, which said: ‘The issue related to the routing of international call traffic into our UK-based systems.

‘Roaming services have now been restored to the vast majority of customers travelling abroad. We continue to monitor the situation closely. We apologise again for the inconvenience this has caused to our customers.’
