    Santa Drops is coming to Toon 🎅🎅 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    You’re rolling out 5G when Newcastle doesn’t even have basic coverage, I have a 50GB contract with you and barely manage to use 2GB a month due to lack of signal/searching for free Wifi @O2

    Ian (@NTF_Ian) reported from Dunston, England

    Hey @O2 have been waiting almost two hours now to collect my new phone from your metrocentre store. This is not ideal customer service.

    @O2 @O2 fone now completely off and can’t even login to my o2 account online to pay it that way

    Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

    I am hoping that @O2 sort out their barring problem as I am not used to sending passive aggressive tweets @o2

    @hellyarrj @O2 Having the same problem. #o2 should deal with this. Totally unacceptable.

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

    @O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again. Spent over an hour on live chat but keeps getting passed to different teams then cut off. Has happened before we know what needs to be done but very poor service now.

    @O2 why is the priority app down? Not good when you have priority tickets on sale at 10am !!!

  • LuckyTony72
    🎃 🎃 Lucky Tony 🎃 🎃 (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 asked for a SIMPLE change to be made in August and 5 phonecalls later you still can't get it right! Customer service is a joke!!!

  • stuarturquhart1
    stuart urquhart (@stuarturquhart1) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 website and app not working 😕

  • ilovefluffy
    andrew 🎃 (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 I was supposed to get a free upgrade every 12 months but your "problems with supply" last year meant that I didn't get my new phone for over a month after I requested it, so my refresh date is a month later, which pushes it past my annual christmas trip. It's a farce.

  • MattKeena
    🏳️‍🌈Matt Keena🏳️‍🌈 (@MattKeena) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 are you going to reduce my bill, because the signal I’m receiving for £78 a month is shocking! Not happy

  • A11RNX
    Amran Ashraf (@A11RNX) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 Hi. I’ve left O2 in September when my contract expired and switched to another provider. I was billed in September in error and I spoke to someone who refunded the difference from when my contract expired. I have today received a debt recovery letter???? Can someone help!

  • Slesss_
    JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @O2 your volt supercharge is a con! Why has my virgin media bill doubled and I’m being charged for making changes to my bill, none of this was mentioned to me this is a breach of contract im not paying almost £100 just cancel my package if that’s the case

  • ilovefluffy
    🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    So to be straight: because @O2 have been terrible for over a year, I can’t refresh my phone until after I get back from my Christmas trip! You’re very VERY quickly losing a customer here and I’ve been with o2 for nearly 15 years.

  • Donna_xx
    Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 is it the normal that I STILL can’t get onto my priority app after it being down for maintenance??

  • kathrynbaird_
    Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

  • Donna_xx
    Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    Honestly what does @O2 expect selling pre sale Beyoncé tickets website down again! Did they not learn from the Peter Kay debacle

    @o2 I’ve claimed an Odeon code today on the @O2PriorityUK app but the cinema website is saying that the code is incorrect. Please help

    @O2 In the same areas? Bollocks. How much have paid Sean Bean for advertising the latest guff about how wonderful the connection is? Because lately it has been piss poor

  • Jes_Squirrell
    Jeremy Squirrell (@Jes_Squirrell) reported

    @wheat_daddy @O2 Could be the coms mast itself. We’ve had trouble with Vodafone signal for a few weeks, then all of a sudden we have got upgraded to 5G and a decent phone signal. Hopefully you’ll get the same soon? 🤞

  • Steven_Casey78

    @O2 @dpduk_ Any chance of having this looked at or do i just cancel my account with you because your attitude to customers is woeful.

  • DavidButler34
    𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐝 𝐁𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐫 🇺🇦 (@DavidButler34) reported

    @wheat_daddy @O2 Government should start imposing meaty fines on all network providers not providing reasonable rural coverage! Plenty of masts around here but they’re basically all dialed down to save on energy costs!

  • anthonychilvers
    anthony chilvers (@anthonychilvers) reported

    @O2 why is it taking over a month to sort out a issue with one of your masts you just keep sending out notifications saying update in seven days

    @wheat_daddy @O2 Mobile phone companies don’t worry about signal anymore it’s all about the Gs! Whether you get 4G or 5G
