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

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

@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!

@WilliamNB @giffgaff @O2 Have you asked for a different SIM? Otherwise I'd be tempted to switch as there is so much more competition now. I don't like poor service.

@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 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.

@O2, any particular reason why signal for mobile data is so poor/pretty much non-existent in the NE30 area?

@O2 I’ve just been told that the only way I can use My O2 is to setup a new email account despite My O2 saying it’s the phone number that is the problem. Do I have to have two email accounts just for O2? Seems utterly absurd.

@iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff Yes, they match exactly. This has been checked by me, by two separate Cust serves advisors and then by the online sales team. They couldnt see a problem so promised call back. All lied, nobody tried to call which is why I had to contact you again, and go through it a 2nd time.

(@OllyFT) reported
@iD_Mobile_UK @O2 @giffgaff But clearly the offers are useless to me if I can't access them?!? Seeing them on the website makes it worse when they are great offers but I'm prevented from taking them! It was your sales team that should've called me, I made a complaint but it has still made no difference.

@O2 hello, I’ve came back to O2 from @giffgaff and after 5 phone calls, 2 PAC codes and numerous promises my old number would be ported over….nothing has happened! It’s been a fortnight now, what is going on? It’s ridiculous customer service

Poor customer service making people wait hours then keep transferring them to others who don’t know & cutting you off on purpose multiple times. Poor excuse of a company. Will no longer be an @O2 customer after this having been with you for more than 10 years. Disgrace

WELCOME TO @O2 where DM,S NEVER ANSWERED. Phone calls never answered or they hang up on you and divert your call to @virginmedia????. They provided you with the same copy@paste excuses...

Really helpful that @O2 has been texting my account info to a different number and when I don’t respond they block my service, and moan at me when I call support! Cheers, that’s helpful!

@O2 what does my husband have to do to get his order finalised so he can receive his new phone? His My o2 account won’t activate so the order can’t complete but after numerous emails to you & a promised callback, he’s still waiting. Perhaps @EE or @Vodaphone4 would like to help?
