  • CaraBarty
    Cara Bartlett (@CaraBarty) reported from Liverpool, England

    @O2 it's painful enough holding for 30 mins after being told I was being transferred only to be then cut off by someone shouting down the phone at me. Was going to change my contract but seeing as I'm at the end of my 3 year deal I may consider my options!

    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 ……

    @NoServiceHereUK @ranplan @GeospatialC @innovateuk @WarwickEngineer @DigiCatapult @UK_5G There has been no O2 mobile phone signal at the DW Stadium Wigan WN5 0UH for a number of years despite many @o2 customers and match attendees making complaints to the provider. Other mobile phone companies don’t seem to have the same problems #noservicehere

    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • 6danicalifornia
    Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England

    I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡

    Alan Farrimond (@AlanFarrimond) reported from Wigan, England

    @Latics1932 @EmmaThommo @PKendrickWIG @skintnortherner I’m the same I’m with @O2 once I leave the supporters club where I get WiFi and enter the DW it all goes blank, nothing, no signal.

  • PaulBeacon0

    Marc Murray (@LiverpoolMarc) reported from Kirkby, England

    @O2 @MarkEvansO2 why every month is there a problem with one or other part of my direct debit...you don’t apply for it then you send me 6 texts and three emails in 48 hours to tell me you are cancelling my agreement and removing my number

  • pendo86
    Dan 🏳️‍🌈🌹🇪🇺 (@pendo86) reported from Prescot, England

    Hi @O2. Your website says there aren’t any problems in my area but I can’t make outbound calls. I don’t know if I can receive them. I’ve tried restarting my iPhone but no luck. I’m trying to work from home but I can’t make any calls.

  • ConnorByron2
    Byron (@ConnorByron2) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @O2 I have pretty much zero chance of getting 4G/3G anywhere I go in the country being on your network. Why? Paying for service I do not get

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

    @O2 well your tech support is not fit for purpose ! Your answer is your ****** , hahaha , so went to Apple store excellent problem sorted , kind and understanding, unlike o2 who told me to change a battery in an iPad !! #idiots just boycot o2 less stress

  • _hayleighhxo
    Hayleigh Cross 🌷 (@_hayleighhxo) reported from Haydock, England

    Spending 30 mins on the phone to @O2 for them to do nothing because they have to wait till the issues are resolved. Is there a number I can call to make a complaint?

  • Ashbond

    @O2 Any reason why I cannot pay my bill using your app? Scrolling through, It appears a lot of other people are having the same issue.

  • bobbieod7d
    bobbie (@bobbieod7d) reported

    @O2 I’ve had no service for over 48 hours after a port from Sky Mobile. I provided my details via DM 13 hours ago and have been ignored. Please escalate urgently.

  • FreemanIan
    Ian freeman (@FreemanIan) reported

    @O2 I left O2 mid January having paid £61 in December, phone calls after phone calls and each time I was told a manager would call, never did, in the end I was going to go to the regulator.

  • Rachel_Coombs
    Rachel (@Rachel_Coombs) reported

    @mhewson_MCH @O2 After they inc their prices by more than they stipulated in their contract last year both me and my partner left. C£15 cheaper each pcm, comparable data, can use abroad, better signal!! IDMobile

  • samovarian
    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.

  • joewalshrocks
    Jo ❯❯❯❯ (@joewalshrocks) reported

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 So do I! I'll be leaving O2 once my contract is up. Too expensive and my phone is useless most of the time because of the lack of signal.

  • beckieebabee_x
    • B e c k i e e • 🐝 (@beckieebabee_x) reported

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 Exactly the same here ! Data is just as bad even if got some phone signal. In a city can’t use the maps because it’s rubbish! My partner has moved to EE. & in going to follow suit if I can find a decent deal!

  • InfernalBore
    Richard (@InfernalBore) reported

    @O2 @Uptowndiscos Why are you directing people to a page that is no long monitored/active? How do we contact o2 Business customer support in the UK? Why is the o2 Business online portal not working? Customer service levels have been bad for a ages, but now they're bordering on non-existent.

  • MarQusRomelle
    MarQus Romelle (@MarQusRomelle) reported

    @O2 Yes I confirm. I seriously hope o2 are able to solve this issue because it shouldn’t be made so difficult, jumping through hoops and a bunch of loading screens with portal errors, to do something as simple as making a payment; it’s incredibly anti-consumer.
