Our latest update on COVID-19 (coronavirus)
Hello,
We know people are relying on our network more than ever right now and we take that responsibility very seriously. We're monitoring the situation closely so we can make the right decisions. I wanted to share some of the simple but important steps O2 is taking to keep our customers and communities connected. We’ll continue to update this as things evolve.
Thank you for being with O2. We’ll do everything we can to try and make things easier for you during this difficult time.
Thanks again and take care.
