    @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

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

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

    @O2 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

  • Danford2013 John McCarthy (@Danford2013) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 I was spammed. Then defrauded. Went to O2 shop and reported issue. Told Fraud Dept would contact within 2 days. Three further calls to O2 (2O2) and one month later still no Fraud contact and no resolution. Today notice to take another payment. @O2 any chance of sorting?

  • scoobyhugh8 Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 how can your service be so poor in a city centre.

  • gavwells77 gavin wells (@gavwells77) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 spent an hour to try and sort out and cancel an account and have been cut off 6 times now #not happy

  • CraigSi64474606 nufc4life (@CraigSi64474606) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

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

  • stobbsmeister Paddy (@stobbsmeister) reported from Seaham, England

    @ThreeUK counting down the days until I'm able to leave. I've overlooked the poor CS and data dead spots however the reintroduction of roaming charges (after banging the go roam drum for years) is the final straw. I'm sure I won't be the first or the last to jump to @O2

  • SEAMAC_VALET SEA-MAC VALET (@SEAMAC_VALET) reported

    . @O2 coming to your Livingston store because getting angry at Ai automated systems is boring now. Would rather sit and talk to a person and leave a great review for shop and staff and get my problems sorted in 15 mins than deal with you online or over phone.

  • EmilyJarockyj Emily (@EmilyJarockyj) reported

    @O2 how do I speak to someone useful at O2? I’m not an O2 customer but someone has placed an order in my name!! Spoken to 3 people at O2 and not one of them has a clue what to do.

  • LyndzColasanto Lyndz Colasanto (@LyndzColasanto) reported

    @O2 how do I speak to a human??? I have tried to get through all morning and dont get the option. Your virtual online chat thing is crap

  • frank29517231 RealTalk (@frank29517231) reported

    @OmbudsmanTweets @O2 are a scam they didn't move my bill from old system to new one, I went days without service. They then paid off my contract and moved me to new systems. Experian saying my credit it went down cause O2 saying I owe them money?

    @O2 I don't use Facebook or Instagram. I've emailed you dozens of times and you never reply. I've spent upwards of 20 hours on the phone to you going round in circles, repeatedly being put through to "someone who can help" only to repeat myself endlessly. @Ofcom @MartinSLewis
