    @MyUNiDAYS @O2 I am trying to activate the JBL discount but no money seems to get deducted at checkout... plz help, I’m desperate for a new speaker

  • andyphilipson Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

  • fredspoon philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

  • kathrynbaird_ Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

  • rebeccajadetho1 Rebecca Thorne (@rebeccajadetho1) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @O2 It’s still not working

  • sarahhunter25 sarah hunter (@sarahhunter25) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 hi I need some help. I've just been given the #GalaxyWatch3 as a birthday gift. Its the 4g version where I need a e-sim. I've contacted customer services but I haven't a clue what to do can you help? Thanks. Sarah.

  • VictoriaMurtha Victoria Murtha (@VictoriaMurtha) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Currently trying to upgrade my phone. No online agents available, if I visit the store will there be someone available to help me?

  • headcoverlova Paul Frampton (@headcoverlova) reported from Bearpark, England

    @O2 really bad customer service to offer a free streaming service a lot of families could use right now only for new customers. Other networks offering free services for all customers. Make me think you don’t value loyal customers at all

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    I suspect if I cancelled the three direct debits I pay every month to @O2 they’d find time to get in touch with me. Help with setting up a new phone when their online SIM swap is banjaxed, not so much.

  • SophieBur492 Sophie burlinson (@SophieBur492) reported from Sunderland, England

    For an iPhone 12 Pro meant to be 5G since November I’ve had this phone. Have i got any signs? Absolutely not. It’s now 3G @O2 bad crack.

  • _RebeccaJT Rebecca (@_RebeccaJT) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 can someone please give me a response to a query, I have had an automated reply in dm which not helpful in anyway. I have tried my o2 app and it doesn’t help. I have also tried ringing o2 just keep getting cut off.

  • doc_drops Andros 👾👾👾 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 my sim stopped working, I can’t ring 202, can’t go to your shops and your live chat is down. Please help

  • Sami_antha83 Sami (@Sami_antha83) reported from Gateshead, England

    @O2sports @O2 #O2Surprises - would love to receive an @EnglandRugby top to support England men’s and women’s rugby. 🌹 putting the request out there in hope that one day as a loyal customer since BT Cellnet days I’ll get an #O2Surprises fingers crossed 🤞 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

  • AngieOrrick Angie Orrick (@AngieOrrick) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @O2 you have the worst customer service ever encountered! If I could stop paying you I would! That’s your shop and by telephone

  • RuxanaNargol Ruxana Nargolwala (@RuxanaNargol) reported from North Gosforth, England

    @hellyarrj @O2 Having the same problem. #o2 should deal with this. Totally unacceptable.

  • sheilavictoriaR Sheila Robson (@sheilavictoriaR) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 Appalling customer service. An apology is required.

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 I repeat: your customer service is appalling.

  • Leggler75 Emma (@Leggler75) reported from Gateshead, England

    My husband & I have been with @O2 for 15 years plus. Can’t believe the terrible service after using them & O2 recycle. 10 phone calls later no further forward. Kept phone & no money. Disgusting 😡

  • TCHL Tim Luckhurst (@TCHL) reported from Durham, England

    @O2 your customer service is appalling. You should be ashamed.

  • nicmurrell Nic Murrell (@nicmurrell) reported

    @O2 But it only ever says engineers are working on a mast near you which is certainly not why half of my organisations users have the same issue whilst being geographically remote

  • adveisme Pete Johns (@adveisme) reported

    Hi @O2 can you help? I still have not received my sim cards 10 days after signing up. App says they've been delivered. They haven't. I have no way to get started yet you've still sent me my first bill!! How can I get help? There's no contact numbers anywhere...

  • CallumLand Callum Land (@CallumLand) reported

    @O2 At the o2 shop in Leeds. The guy showed me options on the screen and I chose the Amazon Music free for 6 month, but never told me how to redeem it

  • NicKeaney Nic Keaney (@NicKeaney) reported

    @O2 can you DM me pls. I just waited a month for an Iphone, your in store staff were pretty useless and now i'm being told i have to wait another month. Appalling customer service.

  • xxxsammiexxxxx sammie (@xxxsammiexxxxx) reported

    @O2 just when I thought it was all sorted out I have to call again to sort an issue 😞#customerexperience

  • luggyjim Luggy (@luggyjim) reported

    @O2 This person kept talking over me saying she needed to verify the account but wouldn't listen when my mother tried to verify the account we just want to get a pac code and leave the company now as o2 are awful

  • simonkprince Prince Khurram (@simonkprince) reported

    @O2 how pathetic that I had to wait 22 minutes before someone picked up the phone only to disconnect it again and never called back! This is plain ridiculous service for a large firm like yourselves! #ofcom @Ofcom

  • MrTrendizzle MrTrendizzle (@MrTrendizzle) reported

    @O2 I have yes. But the way it was dealt with is unacceptable. A simple text "Hey you missed a payment" would be nice rather than "Were sending debt collectors and disconnecting your devices" would be better. My account has been upstanding for years and then 1/4 payment fail for this

  • T4H1R4J Tahira (@T4H1R4J) reported

    @O2 Hi, it said I didn’t win this time but that I could claim a free treat from Greggs and had a button to claim this, which wasn’t working. I can’t seem to access that button anymore, and the reward hasn’t appeared in app. Could you take a look please?

  • RunRosyRyanRun Bacon From Heaven (@RunRosyRyanRun) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @O2 I won an instant prize from Greggs but no voucher appeared, can you help?
