    @O2 Hi I recently ported my number to to you from Sky. Since doing so I no longer receive 2 step verification txts for ebay. I have spoken to them and they can't see any issues there end. Can you check to see if the OTP platform ported over correctly please. Thank you

  • MarilynLeask Prof. Marilyn Leask (@MarilynLeask) reported

    Nightmare with UK telecom provider O2/Virgin media @O2 @virginmedia Day14 into a 30 day holiday they are unable to provide the roaming service promised. As an elderly solo traveller relying on taxis/public transport & a phone to make arrangements I have been left stranded.

  • RachT234 RachT234 (@RachT234) reported

    Would never recommend @ThreeUK - poor network (often getting <10mbps + poor call quality), poor customer service and even when leaving to change network again, they managed to mess up my number port to the point my temporary number doesn't work! @EE and @O2 highly recommended

  • PresenterChris Chrissy K (@PresenterChris) reported

    @O2 have spoken to 5 people about a credit that was due to be applied to my account. Assured that it had been done end shock horror it hasn’t. Ridiculous service @EE @VodafoneUK any good deals on?

  • Emma_Meerkat Emma 🖤🤍 (@Emma_Meerkat) reported

    My @O2 data is running so slow. Which doesn't help that my @SkyHelpTeam broadband is down.

  • Benn_Sanderson Benn Sanderson (@Benn_Sanderson) reported

    @O2 I’m up for contract renewal shortly. Are there any good deals as I am an O2 and Virgin Media customer?

  • TonyDackombe Tony Dackombe (@TonyDackombe) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 @O2 - haven’t heard from you on this. Are you able to help?

  • KebabPeppe98393 Pepper Kebab (@KebabPeppe98393) reported

    Two years down the line from becoming a widow, O2 is affecting my credit score you never noted missed payment from my late husband’s account as he lay in hospital, dying. Shame @O2 @virginmedia @o2breavementsupport Bereavement & Critical illness Team (KMM134555427V81287L0KM

  • RangoTheGrump Rango (@RangoTheGrump) reported

    @O2 @Brian_McLachlan So it’s busy for data where he is? So why are you not increasing the bandwidth? This increase in demand can’t have magically happened, this is over time. So why do you continually fail to adapt to these demands? Your coverage everywhere is increasingly getting worse.

  • RangoTheGrump Rango (@RangoTheGrump) reported

    @dshensmith @ThreeUK - I’ve been considering leaving @O2 due to their continually declining network coverage in towns and cities, so looking for an alternative. However what you’ve been doing here is a massive red flag, so you’re off my list for sure.

  • princessmurray kirst-123 (@princessmurray) reported

    @O2 2 hours on hold to try and pay you money, pushed from pillow to post because of your system errors. Waited 6 weeks for a manager to call. Absolutely shocking. Might as well buy a pay as you go chip 😡

  • darinhalifax Darin Halifax (@darinhalifax) reported

    @O2 is your live chat not working?

  • sadelta99 Andy (@sadelta99) reported

    @O2 urgent help needed as I cannot call even your customer services

  • rubycdean Mark Dean Clark (@rubycdean) reported

    @O2 I have made 2 complaints you where meant to remove my amazon subscription that your advisor added to my account without my consent in Feb and refund me. But instead you have put a complete closure on my account from 06/07/25 and no one knows how to fix this. #poorservice

    @O2 £2 voucher not working for me, same as last time.

  • StevenEmeryUK Steve Emery (@StevenEmeryUK) reported

    @O2 - my parents are travelling to Switzerland at the weekend and are on the standard PaYG tariff. I’m struggling to find an answer on your website as to the cost of actually using their phone abroad (without buying a bolt on for £1.99 a day!!!) any help would be appreciated…

  • JanO4765 Hoop Fan Jan (@JanO4765) reported

    Why is it so difficult to cancel an o2 sim only account? @O2 tried calling your call centre and they have a different email address that is different from my billing! CAN YOU HELP PLEASE!?!?

  • LiaamStephen Liam 🥃 (@LiaamStephen) reported

    Hi @O2 since moving to eSIM I have no service, can’t text or call?

  • joannewillkins3 joanne willkinson (@joannewillkins3) reported

    @O2 I tell you what is Mission Impossible. Getting your store staff to help existing customers with their phone problems. Zero customer service. Dreadful store reviews & yet O2 tell me we have to complain to the store itself? Yeah that works.

  • LynnFreyaG Lynn XX 💚🤍💜 (@LynnFreyaG) reported

    @O2 what’s the point of blue Mondays when the prizes aren’t actually free? You have to spend on that awful app to send someone a voucher so you can get one yourself - that’s not a prize, the only gift is to the business you’re generating customer for

  • zakismyhero zakismyhero (@zakismyhero) reported

    Another useless win from @O2 tempting into spending to get something through @Uber, @O2 rewards are getting crap day by day

  • Eprosasis Smudge (@Eprosasis) reported

    @O2 play now in the app has never worked for blue Mondays.

  • dcpage99 David Page (@dcpage99) reported

    @O2 never known such incompetence in my life. Phoned, used the MyO2 chat and wasn’t until I went into a store they found for me that the number that I was trying to sim swap has been made into a legacy number. So can’t use it now. Will be cancelling once the contracts finished

  • jen_f16 jen_f16 (@jen_f16) reported

    Win a gift from @my_prsnt on @O2 priority but can never get it to redeem! Any help?

    @o2 is your company broken?

  • jonnyrb89 Jon B (@jonnyrb89) reported

    @O2 down in Hatfield Peverel again. All we get is 3G here, so not sure what will happen when they turn off 3G!

  • defscoupss vero loves 문빈 ♡ (@defscoupss) reported

    Hi @TicketmasterCS I have tickets for Pitbull tomorrow but my ticketmaster account will not link to the O2 venue app so I can’t access them. Can I get some help? @O2 @TheO2

  • adz232 Adam Crawford (@adz232) reported

    @O2 hi I’m trying to place an order online but I’m having trouble because you’ll only let me do it via this one account but the contact number has disappeared from it so can’t login. Please can you help? Can’t speak to anyone
