  • getofmeland Charlie Gough ☁️ (@getofmeland) reported

    @O2 So I am now without a phone for up to 24 hours? When the website said an hour? Also after doing the sim swap I had signal which last an hour, I got text messages through as well

  • jonnyellis74 Jonathan Ellis (@jonnyellis74) reported

    @O2 Just arrived in the US, but have no network or data despite having O2 Travel. Can you help?!

  • Joanne268403163 Joanne (@Joanne268403163) reported

    @O2 You tell me that you don’t “guarantee a fault-free service” - so basically, tough. Now nearly 3 weeks without a signal due to your faulty equipment and no meaningful update to confirm you’re actually doing anything. 3 phones with o2 in this house. You’re a disgrace.

  • 19dixie87 D1X1Eone (@19dixie87) reported

    @O2 Complaint more about virgin (see other reply). o2 complaint is about the ridiculous q’s I was being asked on live chat and on call. Said I didn’t received sim but then asked to confirm the sim num then proceeded to ask me for the code that was sent to o2 sim. Full complaint tmro

  • londonayerish ihatehackney (@londonayerish) reported

    @O2 what an awful first day with you! Spent 30mins on chat trying to get my PAC code transferred then your customer service cuts off once connected!

  • DMcGwinn Daniel McGwinn (@DMcGwinn) reported

    @O2 can you raise issues with an 02 priority offer on here or is there a seperate place to do it?

  • C0nfuzedpenguin Confuzed Penguin (@C0nfuzedpenguin) reported

    Anyone else struggling to get a contract with @O2 they keep rejecting me because I don't meet some business policy minimum. Credit score is 1 point off excellent. Been a loyal @EE customer for nearly 10 years but work is part of the o2 open scheme so want to change. Baffled

  • Karen70181995 Kaz77 (@Karen70181995) reported

    @O2 your customer service has gone downhill lately….loyal customer being mucked around…..maybe time to switch….

  • little_jim James Cooper (@little_jim) reported

    @O2 wondering when you were going to restore signal to my phone, had a number port go through yesterday morning, had no service since. Done all the usual restart phone, reset network settings etc. using an Esim in an iPhone12Pro. Thanks

  • LeeW_78 Lee (@LeeW_78) reported

    @O2 Hi. Thankyou for getting back to me. I booked A day out at the Movies on the Priority App to see the film Bad Guys. I didn’t realise it was one time use so used it twice to get 4 tickets on 2/4/22. I’ve just received an email to say order has been cancelled due to duplicate code

  • TheChrisPrice Chris Price (@TheChrisPrice) reported

    On Thursday, what I assume was the first SIM arrived after all. I called @O2 and explained - no problem, I was told, she’d set that one up now for me. Just wait 24 hours for it to activate. 24 hours came and went. Still not working.

  • TheChrisPrice Chris Price (@TheChrisPrice) reported

    So on Friday, the second-ordered SIM arrives and my phone is still not working. I call @O2 and they say there appears to be a problem with the first SIM but try the second SIM and wait 24 hours and it should work as they’ve fixed the issues on this one. I hold my breath.

  • 67wzx9nb28 Tulip1992 (@67wzx9nb28) reported

    @O2 trying to cancel my contract and it’s taking ages to get through to an advisor!

  • Jake60565753 Jake (@Jake60565753) reported

    @O2 I have tested it on a few different tickets and have the same problem on each. I've tried through the app and website but both using my phone

  • EmilyDaly11 Emily Daly (@EmilyDaly11) reported

    @o2 you are disgusting, it’s ok I’ll just pay for a service that might improve I can’t even make an emergency call ! You are not providing me with a service !! Come rain or shine I’ll trek about for 3G absolute joke just cancel my airtime huns !!! 🤬🤬🤬

  • IronRich237 Rich Jones (@IronRich237) reported

    @O2 seriously, what the hell is going on with the signal?? Phone says full bars of 4g but I can’t do anything online #sortitout #fuming #TruckDriver

  • PatricelaMode Patrice♡ (@PatricelaMode) reported

    @O2 I have been chasing your fraud customer team for over a month now! Please can I get a response?! It’s very frustrating!

  • TheChrisPrice Chris Price (@TheChrisPrice) reported

    So wearily on Sunday I call @O2 customer services. I have to explain the whole situation again. The very polite fellow on the phone tells me that a note hasn’t even been made on my account that my phone was stolen. Asks for crime ref no. A bead of sweat falls from my brow.

  • MSEDollyp Dolly Daydream - Tinúviel, (@MSEDollyp) reported

    @O2 @EnglandRugby they never give up

  • shadesofadult Sharon matthews (@shadesofadult) reported

    @O2 I want to report @dhlexpressuk because you use them for deliveries and they fail to deliver. They were supposed to deliver a new phone today and lied saying they couldn’t gain access yet my home is a normal semi detached house with a ring doorbell to prove they didn’t turn up

  • Treeeeen Katrina (@Treeeeen) reported

    @O2 family member currently working for your company is having a terrible time and noone will give him the number for HR could you please provide me with it as he is being asked to work a questionable notice period and not being shown how to claim overtime pay.

  • LeeW_78 Lee (@LeeW_78) reported

    @O2 Ok, that’s no problem. Are you not able to see what’s been cancelled. The email has an order number?

  • getofmeland Charlie Gough ☁️ (@getofmeland) reported

    @O2 sim swap for new phone had signal for an hour now no signal... tried resetting and removing sim.

  • myoozli Bjorkiana Werbenjagermanjensen, PhD (@myoozli) reported

    @O2 is **** pass it on

  • SarahRush17 Sarah Rush (@SarahRush17) reported

    @O2 Keep being cut off chat and phone number is not working. Simply want to know why you charge me £17.79 month airtime, when your advertised charge on we site for same (more data actually) for £14.99. Dont you want to keep customers and reward loyalty?

  • CameronMeikle Cameron Meikle (@CameronMeikle) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia I have long term contracts with both, how can I access the ‘volt’ benefits please? Both customer services teams just offer to sell me more stuff lol. Any help to set this up would be appreciated thanks.

  • Medukofficialg1 Medukofficial@gmail.com (@Medukofficialg1) reported

    @O2 your costumer service is bad 😔

  • SolU786 Sol Umer (@SolU786) reported

    @O2 appalling , I have never experienced such a ridiculous situation - 4 months, 5 visits to O2 shops, multiple calls to O2, E-mails, appalling brick walls .. just to trying to pay and get additional SIM card !!! Can you define customer service for me !! ????

  • TheChrisPrice Chris Price (@TheChrisPrice) reported

    But it's not the two low-lives who stole my phone who are behind my prolonged despair, although I'd love it if the bleeders were caught (they won't be) and I could give them a piece of my mind (I never will). No, the bumbling antagonist in this sorry story is @O2.

  • Jake60565753 Jake (@Jake60565753) reported

    @O2 my priority tickets isn't working. When I try to follow the link to any presale it just says 'happening now' but doesn't let me progress to book the tickets. How do I fix this?
