    @O2 terrible customer service - been cut off 4 times and told 72 hour wait for a call back from a manager. Just wanted a reasonable upgrade! #hatecallcentres

  • Hel49449344 Hel (@Hel49449344) reported

    @susanmoxon @O2 That is terrible .Time to step up 02 now and sort it out .

  • Domoniq39937541 mummybear (@Domoniq39937541) reported

    @KimAitken16 @O2 It’s ridiculous isn’t it! I mean I couldn’t even get through to emergency services 😡

  • EspressoMonste1 Espresso Monster (@EspressoMonste1) reported

    @O2 Thanks O2 for the massively **** network coverage at download festival, was absolutely rubbish

  • mxx1969 Mxx (@mxx1969) reported

    @O2 for the last three weeks the signal has been non existent on the Middlebrook shopping centre in Horwich. Why?

  • Tim35Adams Tim Adams (@Tim35Adams) reported

    @virginmedia what do I need to do to just speak to someone that can help with a very simple query! Being passed around a single company is bad enough but to be passed around 2 company's @O2 and still no one will take any ownership is a joke tbh!!!!

  • avtsuk CAPTAIN_B53 (@avtsuk) reported

    @O2 I'm not a direct O2 customer, I'm with VM. Since they moved their virtual network to yours the service has been awful. Not sure what you can directly do to help.????

  • juliahigginson Julia Holland 💙 (@juliahigginson) reported

    @O2 i've been trying since 14 may to assess and update my spend cap via live chat. This still has not been confirmed/resolved. Please can you contact me. This a simple thing that should not take weeks to sort out! Poor customer service.

  • avtsuk CAPTAIN_B53 (@avtsuk) reported

    @virginmedia VM. Im having the same terrible experience since your move to @O2 that thousands of others are having. Dropped calls, poor data, people can't get through to me etc. It's all consistent with the public postings.

  • vicky_stagina Andretto Poldarko (@vicky_stagina) reported

    @O2 well thanks O2, I’ve been a customer for over a decade yet here I am at download and o2 have switched off my data for no reason. Can’t speak to them at the damn weekend so I’m screwed. I’ve had to buy an EE SIM card to be able to use my phone properly. Not happy.

  • cxanrose_ f_rrelly (@cxanrose_) reported

    @O2 can someone get back to my issue since Thursday please?

  • Pheme78815624 Pheme (@Pheme78815624) reported

    @O2 The SIM in an old phone, shows 'no service. ' How can I confirm whether deactivated, even though not six months of network inactivity? Phone used for 2-factor authentication, so needed. No warning from 02. Thank you.

  • chrisedward5 Chris Edwards (@chrisedward5) reported

    @O2 very disappointing service. Tried using chat for two hours Wednesday as needed data, but wouldn’t work, then spoke to CS about this (who didn’t listen)and signal issues on Thursday and told will be called back. No call ! Been with years, but not happy #timeforachange?

  • vicky_stagina Andretto Poldarko (@vicky_stagina) reported

    @O2 How about no. I’m not reading some bullshit network guide. I’m not dealing with generic god damn crappy automated lazy ‘support’. So don’t say you’re sorry. You’re not sorry and you never have been sorry. Yet another bunch of uncaring corporate clowns.

  • Naomii904 Nay (@Naomii904) reported

    @O2 hi, im on o2 and currently in Spain. I’m not getting any 4G coverage. Please help!

  • Scaccia92 oinotnA (@Scaccia92) reported

    @O2 I swear you and @SkyUK are in cahoots with each other. Nothing but problems with both of you. Definitely switching from both as soon as I'm out of contract. Joke companies.

  • KimAitken16 Kim Aitken (@KimAitken16) reported

    @O2 @Domoniq39937541 Mine has been the same for over a month and O2 won’t do anything! Just say they can’t guarantee a network connection ON A MOBILE PHONE!!

  • jonathancgrant Jonathan Grant (@jonathancgrant) reported

    Folks. This seems to be a con: @O2 EU roaming only works if you have a 25Gb plan or above despite what is implied on their website. Confimed when I rang them so will be make a complaint to the Advertising Standards Authority as quite scandalous and misleading.

  • Sentfromdevon1 Sentfromdevon (@Sentfromdevon1) reported

    @O2 yet again being hounded by fake O2 customer services on a fecking Sunday. Telling me I owe you money and if I don't pay you will take me to court. My Bills are paid in full every month. Quite your love island BS and sort this fraud out. I'm reporting it again for 4th time

  • KimAitken16 Kim Aitken (@KimAitken16) reported

    @Domoniq39937541 @O2 That is terrible! Their customer service is diabolical!

  • avtsuk CAPTAIN_B53 (@avtsuk) reported

    @virginmedia Spoken to them lots of times. They just say to turn phone off and on again. It's since VM went over to @o2 that the service has been bad. Read the thousands of complaints online about this.

  • Domoniq39937541 mummybear (@Domoniq39937541) reported

    @KimAitken16 @O2 There is clearly an issue with signal across the country so many tweets and messages on Facebook regarding o2 signal yet they still take our money 😡

  • avtsuk CAPTAIN_B53 (@avtsuk) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 Why would I do that. I'm a VM customer ! It's your responsibility to support your customers. It's your decision to move to O2 that caused the issues.

  • hullo89 Joshua Hull (@hullo89) reported

    @O2 still no response to my complaint! Do you employee anyone that cares about its customers?

  • wendyg4073 wendyg4073 (@wendyg4073) reported

    Are @O2 messing with the masts again, the connectivity in Kilmarnock is shocking, you pay enough for your contract and get crappy service, value for money I think not!

  • gracebooker87 grace booker (@gracebooker87) reported

    @O2 phoned 6 times now trying to get my daughters pay monthly SIM card working and still not getting anywhere, not sure why I’m paying you when I’ve had no service for months! Can tell on the phone the people I talk to can’t be bothered and says they’ll call back and don’t

  • JillWil20802552 Jill Wilson (@JillWil20802552) reported

    ‘Great’ customer service @o2!!! Haven’t solved the issue I’ve spent over 3 hours on since Tuesday, ask to speak to a manager, they put me on hold and then disconnect the call.
