Core network issues, they're saying. Nothing to do with where anyone is.

O2 is trying to restore mobile coverage in parts of London, Kent and East Sussex.

The company says vandals hit one of their east London sites early on Tuesday morning.

O2 put a statement on their website saying: "We've got a problem that means you can't make calls, use the internet, or send texts and emails."

The operator says it's working hard to get services restored and has apologised to customers.

The problems are affecting services on 2G and 3G.

A spokesman said: "Following the theft and vandalism at one of our operational sites in E London, we have been working hard to resume normal mobile service to N and E London, Kent and E Sussex.

"Some affected customers were able to make calls again from 4.30pm, and service across the region is being restored now with a few pockets of no coverage still remaining.

"We are carefully monitoring this throughout the night."

Sarah Doran, 21, from Maidstone, texted Newsbeat to say: "I'm on O2 and haven't been affected somehow, but most of my friends have.

"Every other Facebook status on my news feed is a complaint about signal/people on other networks bragging that their phone works."

It's clearly not a localised problem due to vandalism if people all over the country are receiving the same problem surely?

It is not localised, this is happening in many places and to people I know across the Uk.

O2, owned by Spain's Telefonica, said on its website on Wednesday that it had a problem on its network causing some customers to have difficulty making or receiving calls, sending texts or using data.

The outage began on Wednesday afternoon and continued into the evening. It was not based on geography and was not affecting all of the company's 23 million British users, O2 said.

Its engineers were dealing with the problem and the company hoped to restore full service as soon as possible, according to an update on the 02 website.

If you're on O2/GiffGaff/TescoMobile switch your phone to 2G only & you will be able to make/receive calls & texts. just wont have any data

this may cause big problems for G4S as all their monitoring boxes that are in the homes of people 'on tag' all have O2 sim cards built in
