    @O2 I need to make a formal complaint over appalling customer service over fraudulent activity on my account. I've tried endlessly to resolve this since it first came to light to no avail. O2 confirmed they would stop my direct debit to avoid the £286 bill leaving my account

    @O2 how can I access my final bill if nothing in the app is available or when signed into the web account no bills available? Already spent 55 mins on the phone to customer resolution this morning.

    @O2 how do you allow all these touts and scammers to buy all the tickets to your shows at the o2 and let them re sell them for 5 times the value when there's children lose out. What a **** show

    Avoid using @O2 for your phone! Issue raised over 5 months ago and still not sorted. So much for O2 Priority. Look elsewhere!

    John Till (@JohnTillUK) reported

    @sackedseafarer @O2 Not this time, my original complaint was about that - their resolution, after lots of back and forth, was to allow me to leave without paying an early termination fee (so a £380 saving). I wanted to view my final bill through their app, along with tracking my device plans 1/

    @O2 any chance of some support for my daughter after her phone was stolen? The level of support @Ofcom so far, has been absolutely abysmal. It would be good to find someone who actually cares!

    @O2 hey O2. I am away on holiday and my iPhone is now saying I have no SIM. Can you help? Is it possible to convert my physical SIM to an eSIM please? Thanks!

    @o2 where on the train line from Maidstone to London 3G=no signal 4G=no signal E=no signal and 5G=no signal unless you have all 4 bars unfortunately for the majority (approx 50 minutes of a 1hr journey) there is no four bar 5G. It’s 2026 ffs!!!! Your service is shite

    @BillCockaCha @O2 I am having issues with it as well. They ask the same dumb questions when it's a problem with the app.

    Hey @O2 can you kindly improve your service regards all customers in TS24/TS25/TS26

    @O2 Thank you. I raised it in the O2 shop and they agreed it was and has always been bad. At the time they said to switch to 3G (that’s what they did) 🫣

    @O2 What a ***** up!! Order new phone and they try to deliver 100 mls away, spent 2 hours on phone and they attempt redelivery only for it to end up 100 mls away again at the same destinatio. This has taken a week to sort and still no new phone, hence to say I've now cancelled said new phone and now looking at new new phone provider, By the way this is not a knee jerk reaction, months of poor signal and network have been part of my decision to leave, the latest ***** up, being the straw that broke the camels back!

    @wheat_daddy @agricontract @O2 Go anywhere in the world and the signals on mobiles is never an issue, come back to blighty and you may aswell throw your phone in the nearest skip bin. It's a massive scam where you're obliged to pay a fortune for a service that doesn't work..it's not just 02 it's all of them.

  • Paulc2nd
    Paul Curry (@Paulc2nd) reported

    @BluesnJazzxx @O2 I am experiencing exactly the same but @O2 obviously can't realise there is an issue and get IT onto it. I have just had an offshore tech team ringing me about it. I hung up. It would be a lot easier to have a tech team over here with the app in front of them.

  • gaeilicgal

    Hey @O2 could you make a SIM only deal that could be bundled onto my contract for my elderly parent? They never make calls unless it's an emergency but I always call them. A bundle on SIM for a token cost would be piece of mind and so helpful.
