    @O2 trying to upgrade on app and main website but when I choose it crashes can anyone help

  • sarahcoysgabb sarah gabb (@sarahcoysgabb) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @O2 Is incoming calls down as I have had so many missed calls from people who have had to call on landline not good for business

  • j4cobwood Jacob Wood (@j4cobwood) reported from Harlow, England

    @O2 I need support with my network, I’ve tried everything that the website says, my calls won’t connect and when they do the sound is cracking and poor. Most of people trying to call me can never get through either. This has been happening for months now

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @techdotintel @virginmedia @O2 I'm a virgin HOME customer and an O2 business customer but I don't qualify

  • jill_jtc Jill T food safety (@jill_jtc) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    @GlassBeadsLotti @O2 Thanks - trouble is it’s not a fault with the phone; service providers have got to up theirs game to stop this happening!!

  • KJDalby Kate Dalby (@KJDalby) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 urgent my new provider activated the PAC code provided by you. Their sim card does not work because apparently my device is locked with you. I cannot text you to get it unlocked. Please help asap.

  • Atanvarne ㄥ乇乂丨乇 (@Atanvarne) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @O2 That’s it. They thought that 7am was a decent time to call a customer, even without knowing that I work shifts and was working late last night. 9am I’d have considered acceptable. I wouldn’t have liked it but 9am is REASONABLE. 7am is absolutely NOT.

  • lornahamblin3 Lorna Hamblin (@lornahamblin3) reported from Royston, England

    Nice tweet @O2 though please ensure my mother's number transfer issue is rectified and I will believe your sincerity...! Delivery late and phone number transfer not yet successful so not impressed so far..perhaps if you can take calls from relatives it would help vulnerable more.

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @o2 I ,along with seemingly many others, wish to know why your 4G has been virtually useless over the last week or so please, or better yet, when the service will improve, but you don’t seem to be replying to anyone. Please help.

  • RyanSchaverien Ryan_Schaverien (@RyanSchaverien) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 Extremely slow data coverage for the past 3 weeks.... any help?

  • paulhayward200 Paul (@paulhayward200) reported from Wendens Ambo, England

    @O2 Took out a new IPhone contract back in November. No problems paying but I wanted to add a Apple Watch on the account. O2 keep on cancelling the order even though I pass the credit check.

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @O2 the answer to that question is primarily no. I would have to leave Virgin as a HOME customer and then sign up as a business customer? What about my TV package?

  • AbbeygaleRose 𝐀𝐛𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐞 (@AbbeygaleRose) reported from Chelmsford, England

    Beginning to regret renewing my contract with O2, their coverage in Chelmsford is awful. My 4G works about 20% of the time. @O2

  • Uptowndiscos Uptown entertainment discos (@Uptowndiscos) reported from Harlow, England

    @techdotintel @virginmedia @O2 I'm currently a Virgin media customer and business O2 customer. Do I qualify?

  • pilgrimbeart Pilgrim Beart (@pilgrimbeart) reported from Royston, England

    Seems @O2 are preparing for 5G by making 4G unusable - several places like this with great signal (5 bars, 4G+) but zero bandwidth

  • jill_jtc Jill T food safety (@jill_jtc) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    @O2 Sounds easy doesn’t it!! Every call is from a different number, it wears me down, in excess of 20 yesterday all blocked & inadvertently called a couple back in error trying to block late at night with brain fog. So cross!!

  • 1011FOXEE beverley fox (@1011FOXEE) reported from Takeley, England

    @O2 I am trying to apply the discount I get for working at Tesco,it won’t let me use my email as used for my daughters account,help!!

  • SimonHemmingshj Simon Hemmings (@SimonHemmingshj) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @O2 @GarethTurpin I appreciate your personal message. However, I now remember why I left you last time, lower than average service, and now a 17.3% total price increase, which is disproportionate and completely knobbish if you ask me. @BBCNews

  • leon_dave_smith Leon Smith🇬🇧🇪🇺❄️ (@leon_dave_smith) reported from Harlow, England

    @tescomobile @O2 any coverage issues in CM20, been terrible yesterday and today, signal 4G keeps dropping out

  • jodyrandall Jody Randall Esq. (@jodyrandall) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @O2 why is your 4G so bloody awful at Liverpool Street Station

  • Gareth53178094 Gareth (@Gareth53178094) reported

    @O2 We can keep it private but hey O2 it’s ok to be treated worse than you treat poo. To be ridiculed and poked fun at because you suffer with PTSD and left outside a store in a panic attack and when even the security guards your staff members called refused to support the store.

  • jamieinindia Jamie (@jamieinindia) reported

    @O2 how do I speak to a human being in your complaints department? I am starting to worry the guy emailing me from your Complaints Review Service may actually be a bot because he seems to only respond with things he has copy and pasted

  • catrin_talbot Catrin Talbot (@catrin_talbot) reported

    @O2 the biggest dogshite network I have ever been with, biggest regret moving from EE, maybe you’d actually get some customers if you sorted your network out

  • louiseomac louise (@louiseomac) reported

    @O2 are a freaking shambles spoke to 4 different people in an hour cause no one seems to want to take a payment off of me and then when I finally get to start a payment they hang up on me !!!!!!

  • CerysDavid Cerys Stowe (@CerysDavid) reported

    @O2 I’m trying to sort out my nhs discount through O2 open and it’s saying my work email is a personal one, it isn’t it’s my work email! Help please!

  • scottfchristie Scott Christie (@scottfchristie) reported

    For crying out loud @O2! How long does it take you to port a number from EE? Has customer service in this country completely disappeared? 4 days and counting. Come on, sort it. #O2 #newcustomercrapexperience #really?

  • Mike_Ellsmore Mike (@Mike_Ellsmore) reported

    @clare_jeffs @countycasual77 @O2 Must be summat with O2 as I've got the same - EP turns into an absolute dead spot it's crap

  • JohnPaulBudd John-Paul Budd (@JohnPaulBudd) reported

    @O2 6. Sort your network out !

  • NealeCorrigan Neale Corrigan (@NealeCorrigan) reported

    @O2 Why is there such terrible signal with O2 in Carshalton? The engineers just say you are working on it but there’s no date for you to do this. Why?? This is not what I expected when I switched to you.

  • vhawp ? (@vhawp) reported
