@O2 I'll try one of these out. I've never had this problem before so hopefully it was just a one off mishap.

@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 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!

@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

@O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again. Spent over an hour on live chat but keeps getting passed to different teams then cut off. Has happened before we know what needs to be done but very poor service now.

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

@2bard @intueldonsquare @northumbriapol You're right in normal circumstances, however my phone signal keeps cutting out while @O2 are upgrading to 5G, last week a man had a seizure in front of me and I was getting repeatedly disconnected from the emergency services while trying to get an ambulance.

@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.

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

So to be straight: because @O2 have been terrible for over a year, I can’t refresh my phone until after I get back from my Christmas trip! You’re very VERY quickly losing a customer here and I’ve been with o2 for nearly 15 years.

Lots of companies doing their bit to help. I got an email from @O2 this morning and how they are helping is allowing people to access the @NHSuk websites without using your data. Whoopy ******* doodle do. I can’t wait it’s like Christmas all over again.

@virginmedia hi, was wondering if it’s possible to claim the O2 double data offer you have being the only one with an @O2 contract in the household? But not the account holder on the virgin contract? Hopefully you’re able to help!

@thegaryturrell @O2 I am getting this too @O2. Terrible customer service: nobody at O2 would even estimate a timeline for resolution🤦. I just started this contract and am in 14 day grace period, will just cancel and leave to a competing provider if not given satisfactory advice on how to resolve.

@O2 not sure why there is bereavement team that doesn’t answer the phone or emails. Or Complaints Review Service copied in. My husband has wasted enough time trying to close his late father’s account adding more pain into his situation. Disappointed by this heartless service.

@O2 So been a loyal customer since 02 were established, at present I moved home and now have no data coverage inside my household when it clearly states on the network coverage map for my postcode that I have full 4g inside and outside when that is far from the case, currently
