    @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.

  • chellehewison Michelle Hewison (@chellehewison) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Any issues in the Whitley Bay (NE26) area with mobile signal this weekend? I’ve barely been able to get 3G at times let alone anything else!

  • TommyWinter23 Tommy Winter (@TommyWinter23) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @O2 hello. Do you have a link for the “keep my number” form. Website isn’t helping and store said they couldn’t help as already had the SIM card

  • Danford2013 John McCarthy (@Danford2013) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 I was spammed. Then defrauded. Went to O2 shop and reported issue. Told Fraud Dept would contact within 2 days. Three further calls to O2 (2O2) and one month later still no Fraud contact and no resolution. Today notice to take another payment. @O2 any chance of sorting?

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

    I am hoping that @O2 sort out their barring problem as I am not used to sending passive aggressive tweets @o2

  • HannahColley Hannah (@HannahColley) reported from Gateshead, England

    Imagine being given exclusive access to sell presale Beyoncé tickets and your app is so bad it crashes for the whole UK. Howay @O2

  • Dan05858044 Dan (@Dan05858044) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @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.

  • Donna_xx 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??

  • MarkMowbrayNE Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, England

    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.

  • Donna_xx Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    Honestly what does @O2 expect selling pre sale Beyoncé tickets website down again! Did they not learn from the Peter Kay debacle

  • stuarturquhart1 stuart urquhart (@stuarturquhart1) reported from Whickham, England

    @O2 website and app not working 😕

  • Donna_xx Donna_xx (@Donna_xx) reported from Sunderland, England

    @O2 why is the priority app down? Not good when you have priority tickets on sale at 10am !!!

  • NTF_Ian Ian (@NTF_Ian) reported from Dunston, England

    Hey @O2 have been waiting almost two hours now to collect my new phone from your metrocentre store. This is not ideal customer service.

  • MattKeena 🏳️‍🌈Matt Keena🏳️‍🌈 (@MattKeena) reported from East Rainton, England

    @ODEONCinemas hello, I have a voucher code from @O2 priority for a free cinema ticket on 9th May but it’s keep saying “there was a problem adding the voucher” when I put it into the odeon app

  • gavwells77 gavin wells (@gavwells77) reported from South Shields, England

    @O2 spent an hour to try and sort out and cancel an account and have been cut off 6 times now #not happy

  • CraigSi64474606 nufc4life (@CraigSi64474606) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

O2 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jordandias Jordan Dias (@jordandias) reported

    @O2 OK, but that is unhelpful. I need it for this weekend, hence buying from you, because your website promised a particular service level. You'd appreciate it is a failure to match what was promised.

  • kristof_vaughan Chris (@kristof_vaughan) reported

    @GarethTurpin @O2 We can decide what phone to use, when we want, but you still can't provide data connection at Bournemouth beach during the summer. Any more than about 100 people and it seems to fail to provide any internet service

  • willyepp Willlyep (@willyepp) reported

    How has @o2 signal got so bad, everywhere. Is something going on?

  • caz_08 Caz ☺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@caz_08) reported

    @O2 Hi. I have requested my number swap from an o2 number to another 02 number. The number I’m keeping is now out of service but not changed over & I still have the number I don’t want to keep. As it still shows number on phone Do I receive a code or an email for the next steps

  • oliviadaly6 Livvy (@oliviadaly6) reported

    @O2 Called the original number given on website/chat, +44 7802 090100, on a different number and it says 'the call subscriber has switched off his terminal'. Had ended chat and can't get back into chat as 'all agents are busy'. Why is it so hard to listen to my damn voicemail abroad?

  • dirtykmusic DIRTYKMUSIC (@dirtykmusic) reported

    Instead of rolling out 5G you want to concentrate on improving the service you already have you melts @O2

  • MrAndyWatson A n d y (@MrAndyWatson) reported

    Paying near £200 a month with @O2 to have zero signal and 3G in Northern Ireland and Birmingham. Imagine having to buy a Vodafone pay and go SIM card. Not just my line friends/family also. A customer over 18 years on contract. Can other networks buy you out of contract?

  • willreedsimons Will Reed-Simons (@willreedsimons) reported

    Hi @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam. Why am I being charged roaming fees by #skymobile when it uses the @O2 network (who dont charge roaming fees)?

  • vanessam9363 Vanessa Bunce (@vanessam9363) reported

    @O2 fed up of contacting you.. account was hacked in April and you still haven't sorted it. Keep threatening to cut off phone if I don't pay for something I didn't order or receive. Tried 3 times today to sort over phone.. Appalling service.. Action Fraud next

  • Zippyfrood2 Zippyfrood (@Zippyfrood2) reported

    @O2 What exactly is going on here? This sounds like some pretty shady practice, borderline fraud. Are you now extorting teens to shore up the balance sheet? Who can we contact to resolve this - bearing in mind you have cut off his phone… Shambolic customer service
