    @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 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.

    Does anyone use @vodafone in the Northumberland area? Is it any good? I'm currently on @O2 but looking to switch networks as O2 are being extremely greedy with large price hikes on their already expensive network.

    @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.

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

    @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.

  • A11RNX

    @O2 Hi. I’ve left O2 in September when my contract expired and switched to another provider. I was billed in September in error and I spoke to someone who refunded the difference from when my contract expired. I have today received a debt recovery letter???? Can someone help!

  • 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 can’t login into my o2 app, it says I might be a bee customer and to wait 48 hours but I’ve been a member for years 🤔 it’s just randomly started doing this

    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

    Yet again @O2 your mast is not working! You're a ******* embarrassment of a company, ripping people off because you're not providing the service you are being paid for. Trampy behaviour at it's finest. #evidenceforombudsman

  • MikeRoberts68
    Mike Roberts (@MikeRoberts68) reported

    @O2 Appalling service, worst Mobile phone provider ever. Honestly wish Id never gone with them. They tell me to DM them for them to help, but, the DM option doesn't work as they are not following me / Their settings won't allow me to. I think its time to involve OFCOM and the FSC

  • JoeGibbs2
    Joe Gibbs (@JoeGibbs2) reported

    @O2 To many phone calls to an automated switched board to eventually get through to Somone to not have this sorted multiple times is so poor . I’ve been told today it could take up 7 days to which I’ve said if not sorted in next 2 days I’m closing my contract and going back to three

  • bergh_hayley
    Hayley Van Den Bergh (@bergh_hayley) reported

    @O2 - mast not working properly in SW17 9PP. When will it be fixed? The local Church is without its Internet. The website has been saying the engineers are working on it, but there are no further updates.

    @O2 Can someone please help me. Last night due to your mess up you left an elderly relative without a phone. Promises to send e-sim never came. 2 hours on the phone and you cut me off. You should be ashy

    Dear @O2 I’ve just spent 24 hours in Llandudno I can’t believe in 2026 your network had virtually zero coverage. I only managed to find my hotel as I knew it was near a pub and I logged onto the pubs WiFi to download a map of the area. This is not acceptable

    I have to say this: @O2 “customer service” is utter crap.
