  • MattyHenno Matt Henno (@MattyHenno) reported from Appley Bridge, England

    @O2 How are customers buying them when there’s no way of accessing your app or your browser version? You’re advertising a service that you’re not providing. Answers please

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @BigLouComedy @O2 100% Gonna try the general sale on Saturday. Don't hold much hope but you never know

  • Hurstchris2102 Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England

    Absolute shambles from @O2 with the pre sale of Peter Kay tickets. I managed to get some through gigs & tours but no checks so could have bought them even if I wasn't an O2 customer. Pointless having a pre sale if its open to all #peterkay #O2Priority

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 has less than 20 mins to sort their app out. Come on guys, this is so bad

  • 17jkennedy Jacqualine Kennedy (@17jkennedy) reported from Bryn, England

    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 ……

  • ShanRebec94 Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @chlo3matthewman @O2 @viagogo Tickets on there for over a £1000 now, O2 clearly weren’t experiencing issues with ticket demand unless you were an ordinary customer who wanted them at face value. Very very poor

  • gerwyn Gerwyn (@gerwyn) reported from Manchester, England

    @Allan2111272 @O2 It was so atrocious that their own network app couldn’t work

  • Chrisg3985 Chris (@Chrisg3985) reported from Leigh, England

    Anyone else’s #O2Priority gone down? @O2 was fine an hour ago

  • kellyvmckeown Kelly McKeown (@kellyvmckeown) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 when are you gonna allow people to get back into the priority app this tickets thing has been a right **** show

  • Hurstchris2102 Christopher Hurst (@Hurstchris2102) reported from Leyland, England

    @carolyn_keenan @O2 @peterkay_co_uk Go directly through gigs and tours. Some more dates added later in 2023. I've just manged 2 get 2 for Sept 2023 in Manchester no problem.

  • RJakesEU Rob 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RJakesEU) reported from Manchester, England

    Kinda wonder why I use @O2 when their mobile signal in central Manchester is barely functioning. Continually timing out, drops connection 😡

  • gerwyn Gerwyn (@gerwyn) reported from Manchester, England

    @biteme_brighton @O2 @leemc87 It’s awful in Manchester

  • laticsian Ian Gee (@laticsian) reported from Chorley, England

    @O2 You've had a ****** stinker there haven't you. Website down all day for your #O2Priority. Gigs and Tours have allowed people to buy their tickets while your shitshow has allowed 1000's to miss out on tickets. Bravo!

  • alid7997 Alastair (@alid7997) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 why is your signal in Manchester so, so ****?!

  • MattyHenno Matt Henno (@MattyHenno) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 An absolute customer service Omnishambles. How can you sell tickets to customers who can’t access the platform to buy them? Spent hours trying to access platforms. Been an O2 customer for nearly 15 years, and seriously thinking of going elsewhere after today.

  • Chris_Mr_T Chris Thompson (@Chris_Mr_T) reported from Chorley, England

    Hi @O2 we’ve been in Blackpool most of the day and have little or no signal until we were leaving. Do you have a known issue, a lack of cell towers or something? We’ve been half a dozen times this year and it’s always the same on 3 different phones.

  • graceblazys_ grace (@graceblazys_) reported from Bryn, England

    @O2 Hi can I have some help please, it’s not allowing me to send you a DM.

  • Matt_Aspden matt aspden 🍂 (@Matt_Aspden) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 is your payment gateway down? Had several calls to pay my bill, but can’t seem to process and payment on My O2 app

  • aflanagancarter Amy Rowland (@aflanagancarter) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 what is with no service in Manchester?! So bad and un safe!

  • Nic05508801 Nic & Jack (@Nic05508801) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 Doesn't surprise me, your service is shocking!!!!!

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • IamNubz Nubz 🤔 (@IamNubz) reported

    @O2 tried to report fraudulent callers using your system to send 6 digit security codes out to your customers as part of password resets and customer service hung up on me twice. You don't care about the security of your customers data. Been a customer for a decade, until then.

  • Triplenath Nathan Woolley (@Triplenath) reported

    @O2 have you guys ceased trading or just totally given up? A bit of signal in London would be nice.

  • PiggyMalone1 Piggy Malone (@PiggyMalone1) reported

    @O2 Telefonica is a criminal outfit and they do not give a flying f*** about the UK, hence almost zero investment in network coverage over here.

  • x4nto Anthony McKenna (@x4nto) reported

    Disgraceful service again from @o2 billed me when I was promised I wouldn't, what a rubbish network and customer service

  • TraceyPyke3 Tracey Pyke (@TraceyPyke3) reported

    @O2 saying I’ve used a voucher I have never used, worried I be been hacked

  • nalloms D (@nalloms) reported

    @O2 you leaked my data, alerted me to fraudulent activity, asked me to contact you but don't respond. Tried your really bad chat function, calling your published number (I'm calling from abroad) and tweeted you. Nada. Thanks 👍

  • MrCPegg Chris Pegg (@MrCPegg) reported

    @O2 your online chat repeatedly keeps crashing on me when I’m trying to contact service. This is getting very stressful

  • PeteyJayD PT. (@PeteyJayD) reported

    @O2 hi, I am trying to port a number from Voxi to O2. The Voxi service disconnected yesterday morning but I’m still on the temp O2 number. Called customer service last night who said it’d be done “within minutes”. Still not done. I need my number active. Thanks.

  • Amit91987 A.P (@Amit91987) reported

    @O2 I need some help with my contract. I cannot see whether my contract price has increased for April. Also, need to know if I am out of contract so I can look around. Thanks

  • Lizzle_B Elizabeth Blackman 🇺🇦 💙💛 (@Lizzle_B) reported

    @O2 guys I need to speak to customer service. I was on hold for over 40 mins twice yesterday afternoon and in messaging I just get an auto reply saying you are too busy and to try again later!
