-

-

-
Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, EnglandI 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 😡😡
-
Kate Taylor (@marykate100) reported from Appley Bridge, EnglandSurely this is not the kind of customer service you would receive from other brands such as @o2

Lesley (@Eclipse12002) reported from Wigan, England@sharper040 @basher5000 @oSimplyStuart @O2 @DWStadium @LaticsOfficial I’m Vodafone, I never have any problems 🤔

-
Jess (@jessslee_) reported from Walkden, England@O2 hi, my mobile date isn’t working and hasn’t been for some hours. No issues in area, and everything looks normal, please help 🥱
-
Sir Richard Richard 🇪🇺 (@RichtMUFC99) reported from Prescot, England@Gazmo1 @graeme_wilko @O2 Its basic stuff as you say. Very very poor this from @O2. I genuinely and perhaps naively thought that customer service had moved on the a better place. Clearly not.
-
Marc Murray (@LiverpoolMarc) reported from Kirkby, England@O2 I would but you have already DM’d me to tell me you can’t deal with any issues at the moment
-
⚽️ Jon BWFC Hurst ⚽️ (@JonHurst15) reported from Bolton, England@O2 I have done and no joy, paying 50 odd quid a month for crap signal and crap Internet signal everywhere I go, you want to help then help me cancel my contract for a service you are not providing 👍

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Karen (@KarenLancs) reported@O2 @virginmedia had no internet since 7am - intermittent signal! Now says no broadband issues, but still cannot connect - PR5 area - please sort it out!
-
Leanne (@LeanneMoulden) reported@O2 Customer Services is a painful process. The issues that we’ve experienced in the language barrier and the accidental cancelling and taking out of new contracts by your staff is beyond stupid! Attempting to rectify it is as difficult is climbing Everest in a Bikini!
-
1 (@tommyhodge86) reported@O2 and @Virgin you really make it hard work to access my own account with you. Happy to send the bills through no problem but trying to amend my plan, wow!
-
Daniel Holder 👋🏺 (@Dholderd) reported@O2 my signal lately and Internet on my phone seems to be really poor and slow the last few weeks!!
-
💎🇳 🇪 🇲 🇪 🇸 🇮 🇸💎 (@i_Nemesis99) reported@Fortnite @FortniteStatus @O2 the O2 fortnite drop what exactly did O2 customers get because if it just that generic code it is awful especially since already being shared around tbh you could have just shared the code on social media yourself instead of making customers wait
-
llamachops 💙💛 🇪🇺 (@llamachops) reported@O2 @EE why can’t i get a mobile signal at #Battle station or ANYWHERE on the rail line from Hastings to Sevenoaks and then London? is this the 3rd World FFS???
-
David (@davidlondon92) reported@O2 I’m roaming in the US on my ultimate plan and the 5G is painfully slow. I just realised you cap the speed at 2 mbps, which renders it pretty useless. Can I even buy a bolt on to remove the throttle? Not sure why I pay for an ultimate plan if your speed is so abysmal
-
TMoSquash 🧃 (@AThe__Master) reported@bombdiggy__ @O2 Their Map checker is not worth the programming that made it! It could not be further from reality. Sitting in the car park at the hospital (no obstructions) and I can't even join a simple Teams call. Useless network!
-
Not a sheep (@ArcherImproving) reported@O2 What information do you need? They are either your people cold calling and being rude or scammers?
-
Sparky (@Sparkyisared) reported@SteveJoyce14 @O2 @TheGillsFC It’s annoying mate our broadband is crap as well so both options out the window lol 🙄 you wouldn’t think it’s 2026 🤔
