A DIGITAL communications company will soon be launching 4G in Holsworthy.

O2 is aiming to bring high speed mobile internet to its customers in more rural areas. The mobile phone network recently announced it has started work to bring its 4G service to Holsworthy, as well as improving its 2G and 3G network. Work was scheduled to begin on Monday, September 4.

Subject to successful implementation and testing, customers will see the new and improved service in the following weeks. During the work, there may be times when a customer’s signal experiences intermittent service.

Derek McManus, chief operating officer, Telefónica UK, said: “I’m delighted that O2 customers in Holsworthy will soon be able to experience faster mobile internet making everything easier when using their phone or tablet. They’ll be able to stream high definition TV, shop on the go and use video calling. For our business customers, using 4G means they can be more effective and flexible by working remotely, accessing cloud services and collaborating using apps.”
