Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, EnglandHi @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.

samovarian (@samovarian) reported@mhewson_MCH @O2 Switch to Tesco, I did it as soon as they announced the ridiculous rise. Same network, but way cheaper and you don't get bombarded with the ridiculous O2 Priority stuff.
-
antiscam (@delays83570704) reported@O2 dealing with a scam call which is obviously not you, one of the benefits from having an old O2 number but not being a customer you can be confident its not genuine
-
Talib Dean Harnetty (@TDHarnetty) reported@O2 is such a crap network for signal
-
Carl Eardley (@CarlEardley2) reported@O2 @MarQusRomelle The app is dreadful. I’m trying to pay this morning and it’s horrible. I didn’t realise apps could be built this poorly in 2026…
-
Keighley West (@KeighleyWest) reported@MrZacJamesB @O2 I’m having the same problem and now my services have been restricted due to no payment!!
-
💕 🧁𝓒𝓱𝓮𝓻𝓻𝔂_𝓞𝓱_𝓑𝓪𝓫𝔂 🇬🇩+🇦🇬 (@Ms_Cherry_B) reported@O2 It’s not a matter of deleting and redownloading.The whole app itself is an issue. You have trashed it since merging and incorporating those clowns you joined with. Barely works, unnecessary extra steps, repeated need for login which has turned into a tedious exercise. It’s TRASH
-
Wendy (@WestmorlandLady) reported@dermothill11 @O2 Yes! My signal is dire now!
-
Ian Lewis (@IanLewis299) reported@O2 please check DMs as I have sent a new message. Despite assuring me my billing issue was sorted I've now had a message threatening my service including my travel bolt on that I am using while on holiday. This needs sorting asap.
-
Nathan Jarvis (@NathanJarvisMD) reported@O2 can you please explain why O2 coverage is pretty much awful anywhere you go? You claim it’s good, but often there’s no internet access and phone signal is intermittent. Search on here to see so many people saying the same. Been the same for well over a year
-
ShinP3ngy (@NotSoP3ng) reported@O2 is **** for customer service since the Virgin Media merger constantly logged out an log back in won’t let me pay on the app can never get through when I’m at work sort this **** out man I’ve been with you forever same number everything
