    @O2 Your coverage in most of Newcastle is shocking, I live in NE2 and the best signal I get is 1 bar of 3G in my iPhone 7

    Hey @O2! 👋👋👋 You are really starting to make me angry. Why is my internet connection very slow, even when on 4G. I cannot deal with the pausing videos, apps and webpages not loading. Sort it out!

  • Richard_Y1
    Richard (@Richard_Y1) reported from Whitley Bay, England

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

    Raj (@engg_rky) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    As expected @EE never cares about customer relationship and thus had not replied. @VodafoneUK @O2 if you have better options for me with 500 min India calls per month then please contact me I will port my number

  • andyphilipson
    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.

    Is @O2 #priority still down after @peterkay_co_uk broke it???

    @O2 Currently trying to upgrade my phone. No online agents available, if I visit the store will there be someone available to help me?

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

    @2bard @intueldonsquare @northumbriapol You're right in normal circumstances, however my phone signal keeps cutting out while @O2 are upgrading to 5G, last week a man had a seizure in front of me and I was getting repeatedly disconnected from the emergency services while trying to get an ambulance.

  • MattKeena

    @O2 Hi! Just wondering I have damage insurance on my phone and I’m aware it covers accessories aswell, can you claim for accessories by its self or does it have to be as part of a phone claim too?

  • adshill
    Adam Hill (@adshill) reported from Morpeth, England

    @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.

  • 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

  • KyleMarleau
    Kyle Marleau (@KyleMarleau) reported from Walker Gate, England

    I’m curious how my number for sold ... I think @O2 sold it. Was only 3 for 4 years. Zero issue. Was on o2 for 4 months and this happened. Bullshit.

  • KyleMarleau
    Kyle Marleau (@KyleMarleau) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @christe1 @O2 It’s identical but @O2 claims they never heard of it. It’s on their website. 🐍

  • gazza_d
    Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @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.

  • doc_drops
    Andros 👾👾👾 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 my sim stopped working, I can’t ring 202, can’t go to your shops and your live chat is down. Please help

    @O2sports @O2 #O2Surprises - would love to receive an @EnglandRugby top to support England men’s and women’s rugby. 🌹 putting the request out there in hope that one day as a loyal customer since BT Cellnet days I’ll get an #O2Surprises fingers crossed 🤞 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

    🎃 🎃 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!!!

  • 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.

    @BootneckShuffle @O2 @EE Never had a problem with O2 untill I switched my DD date. They're hopeless

    Whitehead (@jwhitehead90) reported

    @O2 I have tried 7 times and getting nowhere. I get promised call backs and they never happen. I just repeat myself on the phone for 15 minutes then someone hangs up on me when they say they are getting a manager. I need someone to reach out to me to resolve

  • InfernalBore
    Richard (@InfernalBore) reported

    @O2 @Uptowndiscos Why are you directing people to a page that is no long monitored/active? How do we contact o2 Business customer support in the UK? Why is the o2 Business online portal not working? Customer service levels have been bad for a ages, but now they're bordering on non-existent.

  • marcleigh
    Marc (@marcleigh) reported

    @o2 @virginmedia your new sign in method is ridiculous this is 2026 get proper security not this stupid email link to verify

  • tonywelsby
    Tony Welsby (@tonywelsby) reported

    @Worly82 @O2 Was on O2 for a few years after leaving EE (after over 25 years) for ‘a deal’. Became terrible after the merger with Virgin. Thankfully was on a sim only rolling contract and managed to get out. Awful farmed out customer services.

    @O2 I've reported on the my network app and they say there is a mast down but it's ALL THE TIME. it's horrendous.

    Mr Angry (@angry_corner) reported

    @O2 @mellypeters Why is the email address such a massive secret??? Your customer service is embarrassing!!!

  • Waxlyricist
    Chris (@Waxlyricist) reported

    @O2 you should be totally ashamed of providing a so called 5G service in Brighton - it’s ******* shambolic - 3G was better! Charging extra for this is just a total rip off!

  • igoham1988
    iGoHam89 (@igoham1988) reported

    @O2 I posted about an issue I've been having for over 4 months now and the fact no one seems to want to get it resolved. I was told to send a DM and you guys will make sure it is dealt with. I sent DM few days ago and ain't heard anything, not even acknowledgement of recieved DM.

  • waynetuckwell

    @O2 why can I not sign in to pay my bill? Tried Windows device, MacBook and iPhone and keep getting “too many redirects” when trying to authenticate.

  • jwhitehead90
    Whitehead (@jwhitehead90) reported

    Hi @O2 @VMO2Life Hi, @O2 i'm a Business customer, two complaints email with no response. Promised multiple call backs which have never happened. Can someone DM me, please.
