    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

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

    @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!

    @segawhore @O2 Took 2 calls, nearly 3 hours and a messed up weekend but I got there in the end although no new phone yet. I can’t believe the service in store and the lies too.

    Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 is it the normal that I STILL can’t get onto my priority app after it being down for maintenance??

    @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

    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.

  • jachantler
    Jacob Chantler (@jachantler) reported

    @O2 I signed up yesterday but my existing mobile number was typed incorrectly so I’m not receiving the Myo2 activation code because it’s being sent to an incorrect number - I’ve tried to call Customer Support but I can’t receive the verification code because my number is wrong

  • ronak_malde
    Ronnie (@ronak_malde) reported

    @O2 I am writing to urgently seek clarification regarding a refund that was due to be credited to my bank account. The refund was initiated on May 9, 2026, and I was informed that the funds would arrive within 3-5 business days. As of today, the money has still not been returned to my account. My experience with your customer service channels thus far has been incredibly frustrating. The primary reason I chose to migrate to another carrier was due to poor service, and this current delay only confirms that I made the right decision. Given the lack of flexibility and the difficulties I have faced, I can no longer recommend your services to others. If you feel that you have it in your heart to give me back my refund, please reach out. If not, have a meal at Wagamamas on me!

  • 4peterborough
    🇬🇧 Andy🇬🇧 (@4peterborough) reported

    The service I've received from @O2 absolutely disgusting trying to sort an issue and speaking to someone it was very difficult to understand which makes it more frustrating one that talk too fast with a heavy accent.

  • pussyisgvd
    jess (@pussyisgvd) reported

    @O2 absolutely useless. paid for my rolling plan 3 days ago. it still hasn’t updated and now I have no data, impossible to get through to their customer service

  • Roxannedkgg
    Roxanne (@Roxannedkgg) reported

    @O2 Yeah they can’t either and the venue don’t answer their accessibility lines or emails at all which is what is needed and stated in their accessibility info to actually have the chance to get tickets. Awful, but thanks anyway

  • countycasual77

    @O2 No it’s not - and after speaking to others who live here they’re experiencing the same issues

  • lilyryan
    Lily Ryan (@lilyryan) reported

    @O2 Due to the recent price increase, I’ve decided to move to another provider. I’m unable to find an option in the app to cancel my SIM. I already have a PAC code to keep my number and I’m now out of contract—would that be sufficient to proceed?

    @leemcbr37826036 @O2 the support is nightmarish. i'm in the middle of hell with them after them threatening court over a none existent bill. been going on since FEB. Was told in FEB it was all sorted....now even worse!! Do not use 02. They're dreadful
