O2 meets a 2008 UK 3G coverage obligation
The regulator had previously warned O2 that failure to meet the obligation could shorten the licence term. The condition applied to the five 3G licence holders and was assessed against a population-coverage threshold rather than a claim of universal service.
Details in the 2008 account
Ofcom said it would review continuing compliance later in 2008. This is a regulatory finding tied to the 2008 licence framework, not a current network-coverage map.
