    @iD_Mobile_UK @O2 About 3 weeks, the other day I had to restart my phone just to get it to connect back to the network.

  • richiechuff Richie Knight (@richiechuff) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TheO2 I wouldn’t attend any venue associated with this **** network @o2 the reason they are able to sponsor you is because of revenue and theft from illegally withholding funds from customers like myself and failure to meet their own complaint timescales @TelefonicaUK

  • RoyGalaasen Roy Galaasen (@RoyGalaasen) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 Sitting here at Costa enjoying a latte. Not enjoying the Internet connection that is utterly rubbish as always. It has been for a few years, I gave up on it hopefully being fixed. Paying for 5GB data that I can’t ever spend because it just is slow as snails.

  • del__91 del (@del__91) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Is anyone having trouble receiving calls on the @O2 network?

  • helendoris2012 Helen Evans (@helendoris2012) reported from Stafford, England

    @O2 where is my phone I ordered on 3rd December? Customer for 20years and appalling service. I wouldn't recommend to anyone or @DPDgroup_news who @O2 are blaming.

  • mark_pbs Mark Johnson (@mark_pbs) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 I see your response is as fast as your network? I wonder if there is anyone out there 🤔

  • EdwardRamsdale Edward Ramsdale (@EdwardRamsdale) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 , the services to contact you about issues are absolutely terrible. Round and round in circles with no help at all

  • MichK84 Michelle (@MichK84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Been trying to login to @o2 priority since 10am and now it’s down for maintenance

  • ellenkenty ellen (@ellenkenty) reported from Lichfield, England

    @O2 hiya, are you having service issues at all? i’m unable to get any signal and haven’t been able to for nearly half an hour???

  • Dedicated_Mole Gertrude Englebert 🇪🇺 (@Dedicated_Mole) reported from Burntwood, England

    @O2 my new phone arrived a week ago today on refresh but the network is still on my old phone. I have removed sim and switched on and off. How do I get the network to switch to my new phone??

  • TheCakeSpa The Cake Spa (@TheCakeSpa) reported from Lichfield, England

    Absolute garbage signal in central #lichfield again today @O2 - I have been with you over 20 years but I think I'm gonna have to bail. The last 2 years have been awful!

  • helendoris2012 Helen Evans (@helendoris2012) reported from Stafford, England

    @mrslollyd @O2 My excuse is black Friday sales...come on! So poor

  • PotterPodmore Ryan Podmore (@PotterPodmore) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Both my @O2 mobile data and @SkyGroup WiFi have been absolutely terrible the last couple of weeks. It's really starting to wind me up. Considering how much i pay for it each month

  • del__91 del (@del__91) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Hi @O2 how do I cancel extras on my sim only plan? I can't seem to do it on my app. Thanks

  • mark_pbs Mark Johnson (@mark_pbs) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 @richardbranson I would have left your Virgin mobile piggybacking @EE ! Miles better network and service although more costly!

  • misswhiskygirl Danielle 🏳️‍⚧️ (@misswhiskygirl) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 I've just tried on desktop and it's working there, it's not working via the priority app. Thank you

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Get priority tickets for Peter Kay virgin tell me as I’m a customer, yet I can’t even get on the O2 priority app. Sort it out @virginmedia @O2

  • helendoris2012 Helen Evans (@helendoris2012) reported from Stafford, England

    @FrancoS4nchez @O2 @Apple I've been waiting since 3rd Dec!!!! Absolutely disgusting service

  • mark_pbs Mark Johnson (@mark_pbs) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @O2 can someone explain why the signal is still useless in the ST6 area? I left O2 this year because of this but still have my partner and 4 family member's stuck on O2! Signal checker says no problems? It's been terrible for months 😡

  • bushlar88 Jonathan Clarke (@bushlar88) reported

    @O2 another great example of terrible customer service. Service advisors don't want to talk to you and pass you on to someone else. Not cancelling a phone contract in July when asked then sending more bills. #Shocking #WasteOfTime

  • helenleyster2b Melons (@helenleyster2b) reported

    @O2 I am currently in USA and I have travel bolt on. I can’t do a chat as says busy always and nothing is connecting. Friends have had issues too. I need to be in contact with home due to my special needs son. What’s going on??

  • Alessaof2evils ah-less-her (@Alessaof2evils) reported

    Another day, another hour long call to be letdown by poor customer service @O2 since losing my phone a week ago. Very frustrating. Sorry if you’re trying to call me in the meantime. DMs still open if you need me.

  • twoshadesofhope Aisling Gallagher (join a union) (@twoshadesofhope) reported

    @O2 hi, i can’t log into the o2 venue app to get a ticket for a gig I bought via ticketmaster resale, the ticketmaster log in details are correct. Can someone please help me?

  • hash004 Hash Brown 🌟 (@hash004) reported

    @O2 Got a sim contract out with you guys, ported my No. over on 26 Aug. Haven't been able to receive calls or txts since. Called everyday and have spoken to over 10 advisors now with no end in sight. I'm beyond frustrated and angry with your appalling service

  • AnnalisaRcr Annalisa Ricciardi (@AnnalisaRcr) reported

    @O2 @O2 is jugging me because I moved in with my partner last November, and lived in the previous flat for only one year (over 10 years in UK in long rent contracts). This makes my credit score a 'bad' score, meaning I can't have a sim plan with @O2 . Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

  • PennCommsUK PennGroupCommsUK (@PennCommsUK) reported

    @O2 when can we expect to have our service back, please? There has been zero service in the EC2N 2HE since last week.

  • joeheys Joe Heys (@joeheys) reported

    @O2 Due to not having any internet connection for five days in Portugal, several of your customer service advisors promised me £10 credit in my account as an apology. Two months later I still haven't received it. You're ignoring my DMs. Can you sort it out? Happy to change to EE.

  • CodeBeard Phil Harvey 😷 (@CodeBeard) reported

    @O2 You give other companies customer details so those companies can pester your customer and are paid on sales. Customer has to ‘update marketing preferences’ (opt out) to stop it.

  • usukgoose Ian Brown - New Town Independent. (@usukgoose) reported

    Day 12 of @O2 actually having no idea. No clue. No customer service.
