Dear Customer

Please be advised O2 have confirmed that Stage 2 of the planned billing outages, will be going ahead on the above date and time, as advised in the below communication.

This e-mail is to notify you of some planned maintenance on our Premium SMS MPay (Micropayments) platform.

The work is taking place in three stages. At present only the date for stage 1 is confirmed but we do have provisional dates for stages 2 and 3 as follows;

Stage 1 will take place overnight between 22:30 on Wednesday 4th April and 06:00 on Thursday 5th April. Service outage will start at 23:00hrs.

Stage 2 will take place overnight between 20:00 on Tuesday 10th April and 05:00 on Wednesday 11th April. Service outage will start at 23:00hrs.

Stage 3 will take place overnight between 22:30 on Wednesday 18th April and 06:00 on Thursday 19th April. Service outage will start at 23:00hrs.

Each stage will have a change window, as shown above, and within that window the expected downtime is 2-3 hours.

During the 2-3 hours downtime it will not be possible to bill O2 post-pay or pre-pay subscribers using premium rate MT SMS. Premium SMS submissions during the platform downtime will be rejected and you would need to re-submit once the work is completed.

If the dates for stage 2 and/or stage 3 change we will let you know the revised dates asap.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Note: this does not impact standard peer to peer or bulk / A2P SMS and affects M/t PSMS only.

Kind regards

Fonix Operations Team
