  • corgicorri Corgi (@corgicorri) reported

    I wanted to talk to @O2 about a tariff. I logged into the app with my fingerprint then (eventually) found their chat service. I was asked for 5 different security facts!! Then it took 90 minutes to deal with my query when a 5 minute phone call would have done it. #covidexcuses

  • A_Garner88 Adam (@A_Garner88) reported

    @O2 Hi thank you for your response. Yes we have previously been provided with a link to the O2 complaints page however as the repair of the phone was going through We didn’t want to complain until it was resolved and had all the info. However today the issue has escalated

  • Nursylou Louise Allison (@Nursylou) reported

    @O2 so it takes over half an hour to get through to pay a bill - just to be told he can’t take a payment - has to transfer me to customer services!! Another wait! Awful service

  • scousemouse93 David J (@scousemouse93) reported

    @O2 any update on the engineers working a phone mast near GL1 and GL2... had so many problems today with my personal phone and work phone trying to contact customers...

  • McLean86 Mαɾk McLeαɳ (@McLean86) reported

    Superb service from @O2. Rang them at 4pm to see how I'd go about getting the screen on my P30 Pro fixed. Told me they'd send a courier tomorrow to pick it up who'd in turn, give me a new handset. 👏

  • MarkSBatch Mark Batch (@MarkSBatch) reported

    @O2 He has left. Why don’t you have an online webchat? I can’t call because I have no signal! Are their reported faults in hove area? Other people with issues?

  • gigi_0110 Gigi (@gigi_0110) reported

    @O2 Yes, I knew your message was legit. The problem is I get the error code shown in the screenshot when I put in the code, and it won't connect.

  • megrosecaine megdagreat (@megrosecaine) reported

    @O2 I’m trying to speak to your customer services about my phone and your robot keeps hanging up on me? I’d like to speak to a human please

  • MarkSBatch Mark Batch (@MarkSBatch) reported

    @O2 Please tell me how I access webchat on a normal day to day basis? There is no option on your homepage etc. Not very clear or I can see. As a phone company it’s prob vital to have a webchat service. How can people call to sort things out when they have phone issues!?

  • steveontwitt Steve Armstrong (@steveontwitt) reported

    @O2 Been an O2 customer for 17 years; taking a bit of a punt but do you have any deals that could help me get a new Samsung s21 ultra without having to pay the £345 device plan exit on my current contract... I'll give you another 17 years if you can!
