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

  • 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.

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

    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

  • fredspoon
    philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    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.

    @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

    Jonathan Anderson (@JonnaAnderson) reported from Beamish, England

    @O2 I’m having issues with my calls connecting at the moment - every time someone is calling me when I’m answering the call is failing. I’m having to use WhatsApp to make and receive calls! Any idea how I can fix it?

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

    For an iPhone 12 Pro meant to be 5G since November I’ve had this phone. Have i got any signs? Absolutely not. It’s now 3G @O2 bad crack.

    @O2 @EleanorRylance And sack the poor employee?

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

    @LukeSwinden @O2 I’m in the same battle with them. I claim they never heard of it. Can’t block that number. It’s not their fault. I signed up. I didn’t. Never heard of that before. I think @O2 sold my number or something. Shady

    @O2 I’m really not happy with my phone contract it’s far to expensive would like to cancel free of charge !!!!! Fed up of this bad customer service

  • 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.

    @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?

  • doc_drops
    Spooky Scary Skeledrops🎃🎃🎃 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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

    @MyUNiDAYS @O2 I am trying to activate the JBL discount but no money seems to get deducted at checkout... plz help, I’m desperate for a new speaker

    @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!

    Cruise with Sophie (@cruisewithsoph) reported

    @O2 I have had 3+ weeks of limited to no signal at my house. People unable to contact us. Despite you working on the nearest equipment at SO21 1HA. VERY DISAPPOINTING.

  • larrythehook
    Riemenschneider’s Horse (@larrythehook) reported

    @O2 My number ported over yesterday and I’ve topped up by £20 but I cannot link my o2 account to my number so I cannot choose the bundle I need. I’m on a £10 rolling plan so I’m just getting charged for data. Customer services can’t help and o2 store can’t help. Absolute shambles 😡

  • Yorkiebarkid1
    Terry (@Yorkiebarkid1) reported

    @puncharama @MartinSLewis @O2 O2 asked me to direct message them which i did only for them to say they couldn't help and had to ring. I’ve now switched to talk mobile this morning.

  • ceeveepee
    Charl (@ceeveepee) reported

    @O2 I’ve tried to top up my mum’s PAYG phone twice via 4444 and it has failed. The money shows now as pending being taken on the bank but the message on the phone said it hasn’t gone through. Is there an issue.

  • jeupham
    John Upham (@jeupham) reported

    @O2 I have a TLC Linkzone MW63 but the bandwidth performance is poor wherever I am. I have tried several locations with strong O2 signal. What is your advice?

  • GraemeNason
    Graeme Nason (@GraemeNason) reported

    @O2 please can you DM me or explain why I’ve been waiting 3 weeks for my online account to be unlocked ? I’ve only called 3 times to fix and each time promised it’ll be fixed within a couple of days

  • herd_thomas
    Thomas Herd 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@herd_thomas) reported

    @O2 - Account locked Out. My account with o2 has now been locked approximately a month. Your agents have informed this is being looked into. Please will someone please contact me and get this issue sorted once and for all. This is very annoying.

  • SophiePrestonHa
    Cllr Sophie Preston-Hall ECC Rochford North (@SophiePrestonHa) reported

    Is anyone else getting absolutely inundated with calls from an @O2 call centre lately? I’m getting 5–10 calls a week at this point and it’s beyond frustrating. I’ve politely asked to be removed from their list around 9 or 10 times now and today, when I pointed out that I’ve repeatedly asked them to stop calling me, they simply slammed the phone down on me. How on earth do you actually get yourself removed from whatever ridiculous list these companies seem to have you on? Surely I can’t be the only one dealing with this nonsense?
