O2 apologises to Tralee taxis for service breakdown

THE O2 mobile phone company yesterday apologised to taxi drivers in Tralee for twice cutting off services at peak taxi business times recently.

Taxi driver Brendan O’Sullivan said they had lost a lot of business and had taken “a lot of stick” from customers because no reception was available.

The reception black-outs occurred on May 11 and May 21, the second occasion being the night of the Champions League soccer final between Manchester United and Chelsea.
