    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 Is there an issue with signal in NE29 just now? Mine has been pretty bad for a couple of weeks now. Many Thanks.

    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!

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

    @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

    Is @O2 #priority still down after @peterkay_co_uk broke it???

  • 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 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?

    @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

    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

    @O2 I need to cancel 2 expired phone contracts on my account before my new o2 phone contracts become active but can't get to use the contact o2 online chat. Can you sort this for me?

  • 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.

    Luke Terence Batten (@luketerenceb) reported from Washington, England

    @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

  • SouthernCazza1
    Carole ☘️ (@SouthernCazza1) reported

    @O2 I've now received an email from you stating that you have disconnected my number as per my request. What request? I didn't request disconnection! Why would I? I've then rung your customer service from my neighbour's phone only to be told it could be 7-10days before resolution

    @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

    @O2 I’ve already logged it with your customer service team, they told me it was an IT issue that you were aware of but your replies here suggest you don’t!!
