O2 Wifi

Sun, 18 Nov 2012 19:21:46 +0000

O2 Wifi. Fast, easy, reliable. And free.
For everyone. No matter who your mobile or broadband contract’s with.

You can get O2 Wifi on your smartphone, tablet or laptop in thousands of wifi-enabled locations including McDonald’s, Costa, Pizza Hut, Debenhams, TONI&GUY, Strada, Subway, All-Bar-One and many more - even on the streets and other public places.

All you need to do is register using the free O2 Wifi app. Once you’re on, you’re on. No username. No password. You’ll connect automatically whenever you’re in a Hotspot. Easy.

You can check your emails, upload photos on Facebook or watch those funny cat videos on YouTube. It’s up to ten times faster than 3G. And because it doesn’t eat into your mobile data allowance, it could save you money.

A few things the O2 Wifi app can help you do.

• Register for O2 Wifi, wherever you are in the UK (not just in a Hotspot).
• Find and get directions to a Hotspot, even when you’re offline.
• Manage your settings (and any other wifi devices you have) on O2 Wifi.
• Get answers to questions you might have.
