    @O2 I hope I'm gonna have a discount in my phone bill this month for your network constantly being down

  • KJDalby Kate Dalby (@KJDalby) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 urgent my new provider activated the PAC code provided by you. Their sim card does not work because apparently my device is locked with you. I cannot text you to get it unlocked. Please help asap.

  • AbbeygaleRose 𝐀𝐛𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐞 (@AbbeygaleRose) reported from Chelmsford, England

    Beginning to regret renewing my contract with O2, their coverage in Chelmsford is awful. My 4G works about 20% of the time. @O2

  • lovelylaurajd Laura Davidson (@lovelylaurajd) reported from Colchester, England

    Absolutely love @O2’s recycle service. Upgraded to the new iPhone 11, sent off my old iPhone XS and received £400 into my bank account today! 🙌 That is going straight into the holiday fund! 😎

  • EmRosePull Emmss (@EmRosePull) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 GREAT NETWORK IS DOWN AGAIN!!

    @O2 hi there I have just joined o2 when I signed up I gave my pac code but the sim has turned up today and it’s not my old number ... please help

  • KevinRowley4 Kevin Rowley (@KevinRowley4) reported from Maldon, England

    @O2 for weeks now, Maldon CM96JR no 4 or 5G signal, voice calls virtually impossible at times. What's going on? Thank you

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @O2 so I have 3 accounts with o2 and looking at an upgrade to iPhone 12 in March for 2 of my accounts but it’s cheaper to leave and rejoin or go elsewhere #terrible #noloyality #rubbishdeals

  • JamesSharp87 James Sharp (@JamesSharp87) reported from Witham, England

    Hello @O2 I’ve accidental damage to the rear of my iPhone 11 Pro Max. Only had the phone 3 months so will it be covered under warranty?

  • ashley_leggett Ashley Leggett (@ashley_leggett) reported from Great Leighs, England

    @O2 The fact it’s in 3 seperate locations, where my current projects are located, suggests it’s on your side. To use the excuse that there is too much traffic is also ridiculous as means you have over sold your network.

  • IanMaxy94 Ian Maxwell (@IanMaxy94) reported from Billericay, England

    Is transferring of SIM cards supposed to give me no service on both my old and new phone @O2??

  • SimonHemmingshj Simon Hemmings (@SimonHemmingshj) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 @GarethTurpin I appreciate your personal message. However, I now remember why I left you last time, lower than average service, and now a 17.3% total price increase, which is disproportionate and completely knobbish if you ask me. @BBCNews

  • AndySoloman Andy Soloman (@AndySoloman) reported from West Bergholt, England

    @O2 your customer services are truly dreadful. What an awful Christmas present we have had.

  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    Why am I still paying full price for my tariff when the mast is down in my area and has been for a while now? I can’t access my network properly so why should I still pay? @O2 sort it out please!

  • RyanSchaverien Ryan_Schaverien (@RyanSchaverien) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 Extremely slow data coverage for the past 3 weeks.... any help?

  • SamHalfhead Sam Halfhead (@SamHalfhead) reported

    @O2 Still no reply - you’ve charged me twice for charges not connected to my phone and make it impossible to speak to any customer service - please help ASAP

  • NathFerguson Nath (@NathFerguson) reported

    @O2 what a joke your increasing my bill from April even tho for the last year the service is been poor and rubbish from you and you not improved it one bit So why do you think it’s right to increase customers bills when you offer such a poor service

  • ChrisJAH27 Chris Hanna (@ChrisJAH27) reported

    @o2 No mobile internet for a week. Sim doesnt work when tested on many phones. No resolutions. 30 mins to talk to someone about it. Fobbed off when talking to them with excuses that dont add up

  • jlee_ J (@jlee_) reported

    Lol thanks @O2 been a loyal customer since 2008? But a 13.4% rise in my phone bill is a hard nope from me 👎🏻. Looks like I’ll be changing provider!

  • Sleazy8thDwarf Sleazythe8thDwarf (@Sleazy8thDwarf) reported

    @AntonMcGowan7 @O2 @_jamiemcbrearty I am tired of topping up and not being in the tariff that the package had said and not applicable to O2 fail their security and be told that by account is blocked. Don't understand #metoo

  • Julsey1886 Jules (@Julsey1886) reported

    @Poldisleftpeg @O2 Yeah I've got a 180 quid Huawei. It's probably shite compared to a new Samsung or iPhone but I'm used to how **** it is. If I had an iPhone 14 I'd be used to how amazing it is in a week as well.

  • MattWilkoo 〽️att (@MattWilkoo) reported

    Any chance of @o2 fixing their phone mast so we can have signal again

  • Alfa_666 Dave Cain (@Alfa_666) reported

    @O2 I am being past from person to person to get to your bereavement team. This is upsetting and completely unacceptable how can this service be so inadequate. Please advise on a direct contact number I can use.

  • rhianna_joseph Rhianna Joseph #PrayForDemi ❤️ (@rhianna_joseph) reported

    @wendypajak @O2 @wendypajak it’s because you are pay your bills a month in advance and O2 needs 30 days notice to disconnect the line completely if you can’t wait 30 days request your PAC by texting PAC to 65075 to move your number to a different network and within 1 working day.

  • Julsey1886 Jules (@Julsey1886) reported

    @Poldisleftpeg @O2 I've always been really paranoid so never have anything on tick or owe anything major. I think a lot of people spend the entirety of their wages and when things all go up at once they're a bit stuck. Not blaming them but it's obviously a bit of a gamble.
