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

@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.

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

@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.

@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.

@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

@O2 so… appalling service, no signal abroad, no signal at home… thought I might try to refresh my phone but it turns out that I can’t because last year there was a delay in getting my phone to me so my usual refresh date in October has been pushed back til November!

@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.

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.

@O2 I'll try one of these out. I've never had this problem before so hopefully it was just a one off mishap.

Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

@LutzSchueler I’m already speaking to @o2 to try and get support but I’d like to ask you why you launched Volt without proper systems to deliver or training for your staff?

@grshorwich @O2 I just got standard copy and paste waffle, no actual useful information. Was stood outside the O2 shop in Burnley on Saturday and the 4G was that poor I couldn't even send a photo.

Anyone know the date @O2 ownership is moving to Liberty (Virgin)? This is definitely on the cards. I've noticed the massive drop in service quality since they merged.

@O2 I cancelled my contract and said I wanted to keep my phone as pay as you go which the guy said he would send another sim to do the exchange and I never got the sim and till date nothing I called now for a puk code only to be told I can’t get one cause my contract is cancelled

(@EmathsUK) reported
@O2 No matter how many times I convince myself that your customer service can get no worse, you once again prove me wrong. If you're going to save money by forcing your call centre staff to work from home, perhaps give them systems that don't hang up on customers mid call.

@O2 Your network in Derry no longer has enough data bandwidth for users. No delivery of a new sim card either.

@psychomania666 @O2 And of course on 3G you do get a reasonable signal but no actual data throughput...
