MOBILE signal will be down for O2 customers in Weymouth overnight this Friday.

Maintenance to the 2G network means people will be unable to make calls, send texts, email or use the internet on their devices from 10pm on Friday until 6am on Saturday.

O2 has said the 3G network will be working as normal.

This latest round of works follows weeks of disruption for O2 customers in Dorchester, who have been left either with intermittent signal or no signal at all at certain times while Wessex Water carries out works to the water tower in the town.

According to O2’s signal status checker on their website, teams are still carrying out work on the mast in the county town.
