Network - How can I find out what the O2 coverage is like in my area?

Your Mobile Broadband signal can be affected by a number of factors including the number of people using the network, the construction of the building you're in and your location when getting online. Therefore, we'd strongly recommend you check the network coverage in your area (or the area you'll be using when travelling with your iPad), as we want to make sure you'll have a great experience. If you'd prefer, you can use our SMS coverage checker – simply text the word check followed by your postcode to 61202 (i.e. check SL1 4DX) and we’ll let you know what your coverage is likely to be.
