Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Wickford and nearby locations:

  • chubbyjoeforza Joe (@chubbyjoeforza) reported from Gravesend, England

    @O2 your coverage in the Gravesend and northfleet area is getting worse . I’ve been a loyal customer for over 15 years and am seriously considering leaving. Can you maybe send a signal booster. This will not only help with my problems but also my customers while I’m at work.

  • KJDalby Kate Dalby (@KJDalby) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 urgent my new provider activated the PAC code provided by you. Their sim card does not work because apparently my device is locked with you. I cannot text you to get it unlocked. Please help asap.

  • Kierbro Kieran Brown #FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@Kierbro) reported from London, England

    @O2 I will! If you could sort out anything at all, that would be amazing...! I’ve been a loyal customer for more than 20 years so it would be much appreciated..!

  • stevejonathan80 Steve (@stevejonathan80) reported from London, England

    Poor network in Se6 @O2

  • ShaneyFirkins96 Shaney (@ShaneyFirkins96) reported from London, England

    @under_the_kilt @O2 I wouldve stuck with o2, Good luck with the limited Signal on Voxi 🤞🏻

  • ChristianRad Christian Radnedge (@ChristianRad) reported from London, England

    Something especially egregious about living near The O2, but not having any @O2 signal once again, even though that doesn't make sense. Feels like it should be a massive router for all of South East London...

  • RyanSchaverien Ryan_Schaverien (@RyanSchaverien) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 Extremely slow data coverage for the past 3 weeks.... any help?

  • PatrickKeyte Patrick Keyte (@PatrickKeyte) reported from London, England

    @O2 please can you help me? Numerous people are getting calls from my mobile number when I haven’t actually called them or even have their details to start with. This has happened twice in the last week with two different people

  • IanMaxy94 Ian Maxwell (@IanMaxy94) reported from Billericay, England

    Is transferring of SIM cards supposed to give me no service on both my old and new phone @O2??

  • Sheree_Kirby Sheree (@Sheree_Kirby) reported from London, England

    @O2 I have an issue with my phone, some calls are not coming through (not ring or notification if missed called) & I'm not getting voicemails till hours later, it's not updating. After the phone battery dies & switched on or restarted do they appear.

  • siegeism siege (@siegeism) reported from London, England

    @O2 after 13 years I’ll be leaving O2. The #reception literally doesn’t exist in South London, better service with a tin can and string. It gets worse year in year out. Are you erecting #phone masts underground or something?

  • JonMannings85 Jon Mannings 🏉⚽️🏏 (@JonMannings85) reported from Gravesend, England

    @websterKEVIGSC1 @O2 Hi mate, were you able to sort this issue? Exactly the same was happening when my wife tried it

  • ShaneyFirkins96 Shaney (@ShaneyFirkins96) reported from London, England

    Got to Love when your on @VOXI_UK using @VodafoneUK Network but your Phone keeps switching between a @O2 Mast and struggling to connect to a Vodafone Mast and both ain't recieving interent 5G,4G or 3G. Myself on Voxi and Nan on Vodafone ain't recieved interent for the past 2 hrs

  • amylouisestone Amy Stone (@amylouisestone) reported from London, England

    @O2 I have also been doing this too. If this problem persists, then what?

  • jean_penticost Jean Penticost (@jean_penticost) reported from South Ockendon, England

    @O2 what’s happening, no signal & continuing for another 2 weeks!

  • siegeism siege (@siegeism) reported from London, England

    @O2 Done. I’ve started taking screen shots of locations with no service because it’s so bad.

  • seancalvert1 Sean Calvert (@seancalvert1) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @O2 Mobile network is zero. Can't even get a web page up. Been like this for a week. What gives?

  • T_Morris_Wealth Tim Morris (@T_Morris_Wealth) reported from London, England

    @emmahaslett @O2 Very good point. These things do tend to penalise the more vulnerable/worse off. I work with clients in the former category to help them become more tech savvy and keeping track of their finances. The latter don’t receive much support

  • sarahspoon Sarah (@sarahspoon) reported from London, England

    @JamesIMcKay @O2 Oh….never heard of it. Ta

  • BertyBoyCAFC Paul Reynolds (@BertyBoyCAFC) reported from Gravesend, England

  • andyroocraig Andy Roo Craig (@andyroocraig) reported

    Dear @O2 I've spent more than a year trying to sort something out with you. I call your staff. They can't help. They say your "specialist" team or similar will contact me. I hear nothing. I get too busy and another month goes by. Please can someone help. Thank you.

  • a1_nos A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Hey @O2 showing again why you really are market leaders in Customer Service. Big shout out to Lauren. 👌👌👌

  • ffc_steve Steve (@ffc_steve) reported

    @O2 customer service is dreadful... literally so unhelpful.

  • Alixxxx26 Alix (@Alixxxx26) reported

    @O2 hi, I have been charged and direct debit taken despite my contract ending. Can someone help with this please?

  • Jess_wright97 Jess (@Jess_wright97) reported

    @O2 I applied and got one of the o2 priority odeon tickets but didn’t use it and now it’s saying I can’t use the code and only says tweet for support? Please can you help

  • laughjosephine j (@laughjosephine) reported

    @o2 and @Virgin your service is bloody shocking. Two days I’ve had no internet while I wait for an engineer and even my mobile data keeps flipping to 3G when I spend £80 a month on a stupid iPhone 13pro. I remember when o2 wanted to be known for the best customer service

  • craftbeardy andy (@craftbeardy) reported

    @O2 I just ordered the new Samsung but want to cancel and order the higher memory one as they have no SD slot, how can I do this?

  • fergie1885 Toni-Lee Ferguson (@fergie1885) reported

    @O2 trying to use my O2 priority to book tickets but it won’t connect to the site, keeps saying server down. Can go on the main site but won’t connect via your link?

  • MartinH63295825 Martin Hardy (@MartinH63295825) reported

    @O2 @SamsungMobile Worst customer service in the world. Tried (called 7x) to cancel sim within 14 days on my partners account (i upg instead), charged 25, told it was canceled, now have a final bill of £395.00, telling us to cancel DD which results in missed payments. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

  • airadam13 Air Adam (@airadam13) reported

    @O2 I've barely (and some of the time haven't at all) had any phone signal where I live for about a month. Can I have a refund on my subscription? The phone's only been any use as a wi-fi device.
