  • DanielleBaileyx Danielle Bailey (@DanielleBaileyx) reported from Roby, England

    @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

  • DWATKINSON Daniel Watkinson (@DWATKINSON) reported from Urmston, England

    So @O2 take the bar off my phone at 1700 hours and nearly 6 hours later the bar is still there even tho they told me it would be removed after 10 minutes, not like I need to use my phone or anything. I’ve only been a customer for 12 years and only spent about £5000 on them

  • goughy84 Mark Lister (@goughy84) reported from Bolton, England

    @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

  • TheImageDarlin1 @TheImageDarling (@TheImageDarlin1) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 Hi, I’ve had no service for 24 hours, no issues on your map, I’ve had live chat with your customer support. It’s not just me, friends with 02 have issues also. What is the problem? It’s causing issues for me trying to run my business smoothly! #o2

  • 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 can to call back to request it on the day. Why do we put up with this type of customer service??

  • willissweeney97 Willis Sweeney (@willissweeney97) reported from Liverpool, England

    @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.

  • Ben_Alex_86 Ben Alexander (@Ben_Alex_86) reported from Liverpool, England

    @O2 hey I’m having connectivity issues & have for months. Reported it & you guys keep calling me and leaving voicemails saying you’ll call back. Well guess what I can’t answer the calls to you because I have no signal!

  • amijesuspablo Jesus Pablo (@amijesuspablo) reported from Liverpool, England

    Mad how due to an issue with @bt_uk I’ve had to use my @O2 data to do my work. Which was great, 15GB lasted me from Monday till yesterday. Now I added an extra 8GB yesterday to see me through and half has been used in 24 hours and I’ve not even done uploads/downloads!! #*****

  • lindseyjthom Lindsey (@lindseyjthom) reported from Liverpool, England

  • Emma_Meerkat Emma 🖤🤍 (@Emma_Meerkat) reported

    This whole @O2 signal issue is really starting to get on my nerves. I've not been able to make a stable phone call in weeks.

  • matthewjorange ᗰᗩTT-ᕼEᗯ ᗰᗩKᗩᐯEᒪI (@matthewjorange) reported

    @O2 Never have any signal. Wherever I go. Im in the Gu12 area and when I do its Slow. Meant to be 5G and thats a joke. That's even worse never works. Hence why you are they worst provider in the UK.

  • piano_christina Christina Lawrie (@piano_christina) reported

    @O2 Thank you for your reply. Surely that's not correct? For an hour of interrupted service, fair enough, but I had no data on Friday, Saturday or part of Sunday. That's a pretty bad service.

  • AlexandraRants Alexandra ♿️ (@AlexandraRants) reported

    @O2 Hi, I've tried to fill in the form to keep my number as I move over to O2 and every time I fill it in it says "Oops. Something's gone wrong". I can't figure out what's gone wrong, there's no explanation or elaboration. Help?

  • JoanneEdwards69 Joanne Edwards (@JoanneEdwards69) reported

    @TomBosworth @O2 I’ve just switched to ID mobile and they seem really good. My son has been with them for over a year with no signal problems. In fact he always had better signal than I did when we were sat next to each other when I was with EE

  • Charlie220612 Lord Charlie-Rae Field (@Charlie220612) reported

    @O2 help please! Trying to log into my 02. Number on account doesn’t match mine - it’s a previous number - so can’t get an Authentication actioned. Tried live chat and it refers me back to the myo2 app and it’s a vicious circle!

  • ClimatePad ClimatePad (@ClimatePad) reported

    @O2 Problem is resolved. Thanks for your help.

  • AlfaLady Anwen Edwards 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@AlfaLady) reported

    @TomBosworth @O2 There is only one and that’s EE , I have never had trouble in this country or abroad

  • harmonics28 izzy (@harmonics28) reported

    @TomBosworth @O2 EE, im out in the middle of nowhere and still get signal 👍

  • pauldward Paul Ward (@pauldward) reported

    @NathanJBright @O2 Get a free pay as you go sim (on different network) & port number across. Then a new O2 contract through the third party website & port number back. It’s worked every time I’ve tried it (although I’ve not done it on O2, but can’t think why it wouldn’t…)
