Not app-y with VAT: Apple bumps up prices in Blighty, Europe, Canada

The only price hike I can definitely see is Football Manager Handheld 2015 increasing from £6.99 to £9.19. They're increasing the prices more than VAT.

O2 quietly cans gratis Cloud Wi-Fi connectivity

As above

I was sent a text in December and a text in January letting me know. I believe Sky have bought The Cloud so I would expect Sky customers to get access through it.

O2 data fails, again

We should be grateful they supply us with any data service at all

I phoned CS to ask if they were going to start crediting accounts as this was happening far too regularly. No they aren't. He also said that we didn't pay for the data network, it was a free with our iPhone account. I said they don't give anything away for free and it was part of the tariff we pay. No, it was a free service for iPhone users he replied. I did mention that one of the selling points of the iphone was the data connection, after all the iPhone without the data connection is just a poor spec phone!

It seems we should just be thankful when it is up and have no complaints when it isn't working and certainly shouldn't rely on it.
