Is that because you have nothing constructive to add? Or is it just your answer to everything. The owner of the blog had an experience, she wrote about it. It does not imply than from reading one post on a persons blog that you know the details of their life and have a right to tell them to get one. @delboy You really should read the post again, it is as much about customer service as it is about “getting a phone’. @ming you really needed to resort to personal abuse did you?

Re: the perceived economics lesson. So we can agree then that economics have nothing to do with the maltreatment, by o2, of their customers (new and existing)? Whether they know they'll have 4 phones on Tuesday, or none until Friday week, doesn't give them the right to lie about it, right? If the answer is "yes" so far, then what did you mean by point 5 in comment 17, because I took that to be a defence of o2's actions given they were under strain from lack of supply.

I know its unfortunate that a load of you feel hard done by but the truth of the matter is that there is a lot of satisfied customers compared to those dissatisfied ones.

Also I have seen the phones being served to customers even though after calling into the grafton street store on 8 occasions in 3 hours I was told there were absolutly no phones in stores. I am still complaining since last week when I phoned the store above my call was answered with a swift placement on the counter, not even a hello or anything and I was left there for 8 minutes untill I decided to hang up, which is when I had it affirmed that the store does indeed take the phone off the hook, even when not busy as I heard everything that went on for that 8 minutes and very little was dealing with customers. I dont give a damn what phones the staff have but I do believe phones are being kept for friends etc, thats my opinion live with it, its a free country. Again like Stewart I dont give a damn, that is between O2 and apple You have proven again as an employee of O2 the attitude of the staff, I reckon I probably have 10 years on you since I am 37, own my own house with my wife and have a very respectable professional job. O2 have handled the iPhone launch so badly, I have spoken to people who work for apple and they agree with every problem I have had.

We were popping into the shopping centre to check on the waiting list when I suggested he carphone warehouse, I just asked on the offchance and low and behold they had one left. Which he bought and is now delighted with it. Can’t say enough good things about the carphone warehouse after the experience.

I wasn't worked up over the phones, I was annoyed at the rude treatment I got in the o2 store 2. The were delivered in front of him. So he's either blind, incompetent or lying. 3. The complaint was about the staff, not the phones. 4. I don't care what phones they have 5. Again, I don't care. Not my problem. 6. Is slagging people part of your staff training? 7. If I get poor treatment I've every right to voice my opinion. 1. I wasn’t worked up over the phones, I was annoyed at the rude treatment I got in the o2 store

Last week a mate of mine tried to change over from Vodafone to O2 as her brother has moved to Canada and O2 are the only ones who have a partner over there. She was told 3 hrs, then 6 hrs then the system was down then 12 hrs and finally it happened 24 hrs later. Suffice to say they will say what ever it takes to get one off the other end of the line. Shame they got the iphone contract IMO I know from previously working in O2 what a shower they are.

If you nowhave the unit what's the problem stop complaining. 4. Why do you think that the staff are keeping the iphones for themselves? If you go there you will find that only 1member of staff in the store has the new one. 5. Do any of you know how hard it actually is too get the iPhones into the store. O2 doesn't know how many they will get in that is dictated by apple and their suppliers. 6. Do a lot of the bloggers above currently reside with their parents because as far as I can tell you are a bunch of wailing infants. 7. Lastly stop bashing o2 they aren't too bad they aren't briiliant but having beenwith all the networks they are superior. Lastly given the anti o2 propaganda present on this page I would not be surprised if my post gets rapidly deleted. I would love to continue this argument with anyone willing too.
