    @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!!!

    @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?

    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

  • 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

    @O2 Ignore me I'm being stupid lol, now let's move alone and ignore what I said have a great day and thank you

    @O2 literally tried for 3 days to get through to you to see if my address change had gone through. 3 f*cking days. What a heap of crap this service is.

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

    @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

  • ilovefluffy
    🎃👻💀🙀🧟‍♂️ #booToYou (@ilovefluffy) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @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!

  • 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?

  • petern280
    peter nixon (@petern280) reported from Springwell, England

    @O2 Hello, I’m trying to get into my o2 account to find out why my bill has gone up by £3 this month. I just keep getting sent around in circles by trying to verify my account and link it to Virgin media. Can you help please

  • TheDesirePathUk
    Dan sutherland (@TheDesirePathUk) reported

    @O2 why isn't your myo2 website not working. When will it be fixed? I can't login to see my bills or view my contract.

  • LouiseM30692137
    Lou Mc (@LouiseM30692137) reported

    @O2 what are the chances of ever getting a half decent signal to make a phone call anywhere in WR1 without it dropping out after 30 seconds?

  • notyouravgqs
    Bhavesh Ramburn (@notyouravgqs) reported

    @O2 Hi, since Dec all my incoming calls show as UNKNOWN in caller ID & call history. I've tried resetting my phone, swapping the SIM to another phone - issue persists. Seems like a network/account issue. Can you look into this or reset my account settings? Thanks.

  • AmitDesai1978

    2/2 when my friends on @o2 and @giffgaff have signal. Get your act together!

    Seán Lawlor (Cambridge Barbershop) (@cambridgebarber) reported

    Last message from @O2 was March 27th with still no call back, still no resolution and still MORE problems arising. What the hell is going on? Can't upgrade or can't get a new subscription as pending problems from O2 still blocking me from doing so.

    @O2 @jonesy73 The merger combined O2's mobile network with Virgin Media's broadband business to create a major integrated communications provider in the UK." Must be nice to earn so much from pensioners. £60 a month for a 2 year old phone.

    @O2 how the hell can I wait 8 weeks for my money back, £490 for a sim I don’t even have . Complaint logged, it’s been over 8 weeks, no resolution, told by o2 to contact ombudsman but they don’t even deal with you. Get it sorted FFS
