    @O2 not sure when your call centre in Cape Town opened but it’s been extremely painful trying to solve a simple issue..I might of been unlucky but think staff could do with some further training

  • Steve_Edwards77 Steve Edwards (@Steve_Edwards77) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @westspice @O2 Awful service for me today!

  • RaviDheer Ravi Dheer (@RaviDheer) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 I'm sick to death of your network. I'm trying to pay you and I can't. Now I'll wait for some fool to contact me. I give up with this pathetic network.

  • OmarMansoor Omar Mansoor (@OmarMansoor) reported from London Colney, England

    @Ali_Malik @O2 @Ofcom @MarkEvansO2 I’ll give them a #Valentine chance - never had issues before but now only on crucial days they go down. #

  • bks67 bridget sparks (@bks67) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @O2 I do have the app, I think I will phone the customer service team and ask them,

  • ItsMeEllisxD Ellis Brown (@ItsMeEllisxD) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 Well it’s every time I leave Leicester. Or go to a new city.. even when I have 4 bars it’s either really slow or won’t load at all!

  • PaulWRamsay #HellomynameisPaul (@PaulWRamsay) reported from London Colney, England

    Really bad service from @O2, having calls from a shop to pressure into upgrades, no really clarity when calling 202 to ask what’s going on-I think I need a new network!

  • juliet_gough juliet gough (@juliet_gough) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 I tried. I think you guys list connection. The guru went to check and never came back!!! 🙈😩 @o2 #o2guru

  • jmcomms Jonathan Morris 📱📸 (@jmcomms) reported from London Colney, England

    @VModifiedMind @benwood @EE @VodafoneUK @ThreeUK @O2 Albeit using half rate codec for voice. Sounded pretty awful.

  • dramattyhealy 🌜cobie🌛 (@dramattyhealy) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 Hi, it’s been 2 weeks since i started receiving non stop calls from your call centres to get me get a plan with you, the caller said that i entered some kind of contest or signed up for this but i never did since i am happy with my current provider. This is very inconvenient

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley & Gavin (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    Gav and I have had no mobile phone service for 3 days, but I have no service to call @virginmedia to let them know! It happens far too regularly. Just spent the morning searching for a new deal. @O2 looks like the best so far!

  • DimitthriV Dimitthri Vithanage (@DimitthriV) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 what is going on! 😭😭 Even when I have signal it's so slow!

  • Craigcanfield Craig Canfield (@Craigcanfield) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @O2 contract finished.. put on a rolling month deal.. nothing will change they said... 2 days now with no phone signal.. "sim provisioned"! Customer svc say it'll work soon. Gggrrr

  • AndrewTRIrwin Andrew Irwin (@AndrewTRIrwin) reported from London Colney, England

    @EmmaShubrook @O2 Agreed. I have no signal at all

  • juliet_gough juliet gough (@juliet_gough) reported from London Colney, England

    @O2 #o2guru said they are doing a network investigation for me. It makes no sense to use 1GB of data in 53 minutes whilst at the theatre. I’d have to be live streaming for that to happen! #o2 @TheO2 #1gbdata #goinggone

  • isthatdan Dan (@isthatdan) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @O2 are gonna have to either offer me an amazing deal or sort out this horrendous signal issue. How can I not load a twitter video when I have a full 4 bars of 4G signal

  • simonmaroulis SIMON MAROULIS (@simonmaroulis) reported

    I didn't think it could get worse than 3 but @O2 is literally the worst network ever

  • Gingeroo21 Thingamyjig (@Gingeroo21) reported

    I have received fraudulent phone calls & text messages from @O2 yet nobody there is interested. I didn’t have roaming when I visited Spain & nobody was able to help. I want to leave O2, 1st call ended with fee being waived; cut off; 2nd said it couldn’t be. Appalling service.

  • FlorenceUnger Nicola Ashton (@FlorenceUnger) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 92 year old new customer. Simple query re phone number transfer. Been waiting for 3 hours for a WhatsApp response. Very upsetting for her as an elderly, vulnerable customer.

  • Danjmillz93 Daniel Millett (@Danjmillz93) reported

    @O2 Chat doesn't work either. No, over a week is rediculous, a technical fault is a load of rubbish . No other company has this issue like this.

  • duncangreeneye Duncan Butterfield (@duncangreeneye) reported

    @O2 Having trouble paying my phone bill.

  • Flemo1983 Flemo (@Flemo1983) reported

    @O2 @O2PriorityUK what is the O2 Priority Service charge when you guy gig tickets using #O2Priority as an #O2 member?

  • pollyesta73 Helen Rawson (@pollyesta73) reported

    @bluegaschris @O2 I did this because they disabled my comments on faceache 😮 still no resolution. It really is shocking.

  • RamsayAmber Amber Turner-Ramsay (@RamsayAmber) reported

    @O2 I've been unable to get any help via the chat and no ones answering at O2 - it's been two days - when will i be able to unblock my sim?

  • becky_snellin Becky Snellin (@becky_snellin) reported

    @O2 I have tried to get through again via phone today as my issue cannot be resolved online. Been on hold for another 1 hour and 16 minutes so far and no answer. Can someone from @O2 please contact me directly?

  • JadeLizabeth_x Jade Elizabeth (*JD*) (@JadeLizabeth_x) reported

    @O2 But you’ve replied to everyone else really quickly? Literally just going to cancel my DD to my other contract due on the 10th- then i bet you’ll be in touch, such a lying load of useless people
