Ipad 3G coverage

Ive owned an Ipad (1st generation) since Dec 2010.

Its the 3g model so Ive never relied on WIFI for Internet access, I have an O2 sim and buy a 30 day broadband pass. This has worked perfectly up until last week, when the ipad displayed "No service".

I checked the broadband pass and it still had 9 days left. My monthly useage was way under the limit also.

I rang O2 and was advised to call into a store and get the sim replaced.
This didn't fix the problem, so a report was logged with their tech team.
A week later and still no service I called them back and they said they could see no problem from their end and the problem must be the ipad.

I called to CompuB who ran a diagnostic test but the Ipad was fine.

I reveted back to O2 who said they'd look more into it.

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Theres a very faint signal when I take the Ipad to work but so slow, its unuseable. Theres no signal when I take it home, but this has never been a problem in the previous 18 months.

As I use the ipad daily, this is driving me bananas. Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Just dropped into Meteor. They put in one of their sims and still no service.

Seems its the ipad.

Not the outcome I was hoping for but at least the problem has been pin pointed.
