    @MoneySavingExp I’ve been trying to disconnect from @O2 since I moved last November! Paying £18 a month despite not receiving any service from them!! They just told me that they can’t do anything as I’m tied into a contract!! Isn’t this a breach of contract @MartinSLewis

    @O2 Fix your network capacity issues in Swansea or at least be honest in your advertised speeds 😉

  • mksaper Morgan Saper (@mksaper) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    Appalling customer service from @O2 - now the third time I have got to resolve the same issue… numerous hours wasted trying to get through for it to repeat again the next month. Why is it so difficult?!

    @O2 Can I get some help please

  • SianRhian Sian •• [Superman] •• ❤️[Batman] ••🤘🏻 (@SianRhian) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @O2 @AppleSupport I bought the iPhone XR in March from o2 branch in Leeds. Since then it’s formally crashed on me and had to get apple to fix it. I can’t hear out speaker half the time and it kicks me off using my data even on WiFi and mobile data!

  • kevevs1908 Kevin (@kevevs1908) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @HayleyJ87 @O2 If it’s a direct debit Falkland your bank, cancel it and ask them to do an indemnity claim If it’s a card payment tell them you want their disputes team to take it up with O2. They then by law have to prove to your back that you signed up to pay. Yes I work for a bank

  • 1JNR Warren Weerackoon (@1JNR) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @O2 HORRIFIC CUSTOMER SERVICE TELEPHONE CALL from GILLIAN!! I'm glad it was recorded to pass onto the OMBUDSMAN. You pay for a service that doesn't have to be given to you by O2.Its in T&C. Utterly Shocking attitude by GILLIAN @O2 customer service!!!!!

  • reedo456 Andrew Reed (@reedo456) reported from Bishopston, Wales

    @O2 No help needed thanks - @EE are much better

  • Janeattwell Jane attwell (@Janeattwell) reported from Crofty, Wales

    @O2 It seems to be ok at the moment. Unfortunately they rely on a data sim and mifi for their Wi-fi so the link doesn’t help.

  • mikebonomi michael bonomi (@mikebonomi) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @franciscarockey @O2 Shame @o2 couldn’t do that for me too. And also my signal over the last 3 months have been abysmal. Been a loyal customer for 5 years now.

  • EgalGeordie Egalitarian Geordie (@EgalGeordie) reported

    @O2 No, but it did work in Alberta but its not working in Onterio

  • BobYohair BobYohair (@BobYohair) reported

    @o2 hardly any reception travelling from Leeds to Bristol on your network. Seriously, do better, or make your contacts cheaper if you can’t provide the service we are paying for. #o2

  • ImperfectPaige_ Paige Evans (@ImperfectPaige_) reported

    So you split with an abusive partner and when trying to sort the finances, speak to @O2 to see how they can help you not pay for him anymore. Their solution? Contact said abuser and sort it with him otherwise you're stuck in contract and have to pay

  • little_lea16 Lea 🇬🇧 🌹💞 (@little_lea16) reported

    @O2 I want to cancel my 30 day plan sim with yourselves. I don't want to wait hours on hold on the phone. I'm fed up of the monthly charges secretly increasing, without any notice, despite being on unlimited! I can get a cheaper deal elsewhere!

  • Ag3ntVibeZz Antony Thompson (@Ag3ntVibeZz) reported

    @O2 I’m on a o2 refresh contract. I got my phone yesterday. Put in my new sim. Text swap to the number I was given and it worked last night and today until around 12 today. How can I fix this??

  • bendougcraig Ben Craig (@bendougcraig) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport It’s pretty much everywhere. And yet people on other networks don’t seem to have the issues. And if I upgrade I’ll have to pay roaming fees. Unlike say @O2 So at the moment I see very little point in staying with you. You take my money and I get very little in return

  • chiefmackers Paul McClure (@chiefmackers) reported

    Was paying @SkyUK £117pm for TV/internet.No sports channels.Slow 40mb internet. Just swapped to @virginmedia £85pm all chanels inc SkySports/BT sport, multiroom & 1GB speed & includes an unlimited @O2 mobile contract so I can cancel my current £25 phone contract. FAR better deal

  • JonoG1 Jon Goodman 〓〓 (@JonoG1) reported

    When will @O2 do something to improve the data signal in popular tourist areas like here in Newquay!?!? This happens every year! I have a seizure alarm that relies on texts to alert my family but I'm housebound coz the network is soooo bad right now!!

  • djjamiemarsden @DJJamieMarsden (@djjamiemarsden) reported

    @O2 are an absolute joke of a company what a shower of absolute shite wouldn’t recommend them to my dog never mind any one else..!! #o2arewank

  • Emmaaa__x Emmaaaaa (@Emmaaa__x) reported

    @O2 customer service is actually shocking like I’m absolutely fuming. Absolutely waste of time 30 minutes on the phone to be speaking to someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing!!! I want this resolved now!
