Boris Johnson - My Fake Diary

Friday, 13 July 2012

My popular fleet of rental bikes have become an unexpected victim of O2's nationwide outage, as more than 100 bike stations across London were hit by the network blackout.

You know the ones, those with Barclay's bank logo splashed on em!

The bicycle hire machines were affected by the blackout because they use the O2 network to process card payments from customers.

Hundreds of thousands of people across the UK have been affected by the blackout, which began at 1.30pm on Wednesday and left customers unable to make calls, send or receive text messages or use mobile data for around 24 hours.

Just a shame with the LIBOR business, they had to have Barclay's logos!
