  • kjgreigy Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 hi i live in the postcode area OL9 , for the last 3/4 months the signal has been horrendous!! Lucky if I get 1 bar of 4G and once I can make a call I’m lucky if it doesn’t disconnect or if I move it cuts off… not great when paying a fair bit for a contract! #help

  • sampixeldot Sam 🤸🏻‍♀️ (@sampixeldot) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @O2 Yep I have. It says you've been working on masts in the last 24hrs but there should be no current issues. After you've been working on masts, how long do you expect til signal is normal again?

  • Dan05858044 Dan (@Dan05858044) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 what’s going on with the signal in Manchester, absolutely crap. Can hardly get on @SkySportsNews

  • GoaterBilly Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @O2 which idiot authorises sending out texts at 4 o’clock in the morning to update me about my phone order? Get real.The person needs punching or sacking or both!

  • SteveVanDang Steve (@SteveVanDang) reported from Stockport, England

    Welp @O2 support was great tellin me no better deals,tho new customers get massively better deals & the signal in my area should be good 🤷. #Pac requested, got a @VOXI_UK Sim for half the price, better signal, more perks. 16 years brand loyalty with o2, was worth squat to o2.cya

  • tadhg50 Tim O'Ryan (@tadhg50) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 Yep-didn’t work and then tried via help centre- still no luck . I’ll DM the number

  • 6danicalifornia Dani Tomlinson 🎶 (@6danicalifornia) reported from Horwich, England

    I really wish @O2 can sort out the issues in Horwich. Trying to contact your insurance and police etc after a break in is extremely frustrating when there's no bloody signal 😡😡

  • violetibeh Violet (@violetibeh) reported from Manchester, England

    @O2 please can I understand my refund for an order has not been done? I spoke to a customer representative after a week now and been told that it’s not on your system so I can’t get a refund? So why was a deduction made from my account and why was a receipt issued afterwards?

  • Mrs_G_Bowen Just Gem 💙 (@Mrs_G_Bowen) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @O2 I have no issue with waiting so long as you will have it in stock? I was told next Saturday on the phone for delivery this am and then received an email to say it's not in stock. Hence the confusion 😕

  • howierice Howard Rice (@howierice) reported from Sale, England

    @O2 @virginmedia @Curlykidlife Hi Virgin Media. Have just moved my sim over to O2 and as an existing VM customer applied for my free Volt upgrade. O2 have doubled my mobile data and you have upgraded my broadband. However you have now almost doubled my monthly payment. VM customer service cannot help ?!

  • nuttyhill Patrick Veale (@nuttyhill) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 why does your signal seem to be terrible everywhere now? Even in town centres. I know you've partnered with @virginmedia but you didn't have to share their service quality

  • sampixeldot Sam 🤸🏻‍♀️ (@sampixeldot) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @O2 @CatherineLB92 Hi, still terrible phone signal here in SK11. I'm working from home so WiFi is fine but phone calls are not 😩

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Yes it says 4G, I have no idea what’s going on. Is there an issue certain areas possibly?

  • kea11y Keally (@kea11y) reported from Bolton, England

    @O2 how can you sell a phone, take the money then tell the customer its not in stock and not tell them when it will be? Absolute disgrace of a company. Trying to get in touch with customer service is a joke.

  • liammcdon97 Liam McDonald (@liammcdon97) reported from Stockport, England

    £40 a month for @O2 and can't even get any signal majority of the time. Absolute jokers.

  • kjgreigy Karen Greig (@kjgreigy) reported from Oldham, England

    @O2 No 4G barely works! I never get through a phone call without it cutting out

  • AdnyNichols Andy Nichols (@AdnyNichols) reported from Horwich, England

  • sonnisamosa Sonia (@sonnisamosa) reported from Urmston, England

    @O2 Hello, my data hasn’t worked since yesterday. I’ve reset the network settings and my phone. Any ideas?

  • demi_akinrowo Dem (@demi_akinrowo) reported

    @O2 Hi O2, I am in Barcelona and cannot get any connection to Movistar at all. 4G won’t connect and 3G is doing nothing. Please can you assist as I have roaming included in my plan and have never had this issue in Europe before

  • pcarrollmusic Pete Carroll Music (@pcarrollmusic) reported

    @O2 Your Network is shite. Every week connection issues, timing out, I give you £30-50 a month, This morning is the last money you'll get from me. Amateurs !

  • candlish_david david candlish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@candlish_david) reported

    @wendyg4073 @O2 I went into the shop with the same problem.They exchanged the Sim but that didn’t help

  • AEGIS_Five Five (@AEGIS_Five) reported

    No issues are being resolved, our time is being wasted and quite frankly I'm done with being treated like a decade of my money means nothing. @O2 @VodafoneUK @giffgaff or whoever else hit me up with some deals.

  • silentpen Ivy • 💙 🌹 (@silentpen) reported

    @O2 I was charged £24.39 in March - April for “things you bought” at £9.16 that I NEVER bought.

  • curiouszhi Zhi Ling Lee (@curiouszhi) reported

    @O2 Hi - longtime customer here. I've been on hold for 30 mins trying to speak to someone about my tariff. Do I need to say I'm leaving O2 for someone to pick up the phone faster?

  • brookew89 Brooke (@brookew89) reported

    @O2 my order placed on Tuesday which was next day delivery hasn’t arrived, Royal Mail say the tracking number doesn’t exist and I can’t find an answer on the FAQs or a number to call, could someone help me please? 🙏

  • SeanMcn99075899 Sean Mcnally (@SeanMcn99075899) reported

    @O2 Poor signal ever since I started my contract, explanation mark on the 4g/5g symbol

  • yorkonafork York on a Fork (@yorkonafork) reported

    @O2 @daviddunninguk You’ve never shown any active willingness to fix this in my experience.

  • jonandmarkuk Jonathan Phillips (@jonandmarkuk) reported

    @O2 is it normal for people on the website chat to simply disconnect from the chat when asked to simply clarify what I get as a VM customer. Seemed he wanted to just push a sale and didn't want to answer simple questions. Very rude and unhelpful.
