    @O2 you must have to be one of the worst companies to get hold of. You have disconnected my sons phone over such a small ammount of money after such a small period of time. I’ve tried to sort this and I cannot get hold of anyone

    @O2 hi. I have Disney+ free till end month, when it then becomes £5.99. I saw on o2 offers I can add it for £3.99. Do I need to cancel and re add for the discount or will the £2 off auto apply when it becomes chargeable? Thanks

    @O2 The enforcement letters continue - three more received today - sent to a loyal @O2 customer who hasn’t done anything wrong. We have not yet had any reassurance that this mess - from @O2 ‘s error - will be resolved.

    @O2 awful service. Called to pay my device plan in full, was on the phone for >1 hr spoke to 5 different people in 5 different teams that couldn’t help (Customer Service, Retentions, Payments, Billing & Upgrades). My dog would’ve give a better service than what I received today!

    It’s already been said but @o2 it’s a disgrace - early access to Peter Kay tickets - no chance, now sold out - O2 customers were NEVER getting priority ……

  • Chris_Mr_T
    Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England

    Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

  • Is_Me_Ben
    Ben Winstanley (@Is_Me_Ben) reported from Aspull, England

    @O2 incorrectly charge £XXX to our bank account. Admit this was done in error. We have to wait until 6th Jan 2021 before it can be refunded. Even then, we have to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    @O2 Your customer services are terrible and abject. I've been awaiting a promised call back now for over an hour, after you passed me from pillar to post to try and buy a new item. I've been with you for well over 20 years and I am very likely to cancel everything with you if you don't pull your finger out and do as you have said you were going to. Very unhappy with your service.

  • kbushnell1975
    Kieren Bushnell (@kbushnell1975) reported

    Never using @O2 ever again. They are an utter disgrace of a company. Avoid at all costs. What a shambles of an organisation you have become.

    @arokorol @O2 What’s the problem?

  • Oluebube49496
    Oluebube (@Oluebube49496) reported

    @O2 However, the SIM still cannot register on any network and shows “Selected network unavailable.” The SIM is detected properly by the phone, so I would like you to please check: whether international roaming is enabled on my line, whether the SIM is still active,
