    @O2, any particular reason why signal for mobile data is so poor/pretty much non-existent in the NE30 area?

  • MattKeena

    @O2 are you going to reduce my bill, because the signal I’m receiving for £78 a month is shocking! Not happy

    Dean (@smiling_cyclist) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @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.

    @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.

    @O2 I’m in Newcastle for the weekend and could hardly get a service, keeping jumping from 1 bar on 5G onto 3G, couldn’t get into social media or online due to it buffering. What a waste of time moving to you from EE

    Darren (@DarrenMorgan) reported from Washington, England

    @BootneckShuffle @O2 @EE Never had a problem with O2 untill I switched my DD date. They're hopeless

  • doc_drops
    Santa Drops is coming to Toon 🎅🎅 (@doc_drops) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    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

  • Lauras95
    Lauraaaa (@Lauras95) reported from Gateshead, England

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

  • KyleMarleau
    Kyle Marleau (@KyleMarleau) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @christe1 @O2 It’s identical but @O2 claims they never heard of it. It’s on their website. 🐍

  • NTF_Ian

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

    @O2 and can’t even login to my o2 account online to pay it that way

  • 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?

    @O2 Im pleased 😊 scammers are awful!

  • 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

    @O2sports @O2 #O2Surprises - would love to receive an @EnglandRugby top to support England men’s and women’s rugby. 🌹 putting the request out there in hope that one day as a loyal customer since BT Cellnet days I’ll get an #O2Surprises fingers crossed 🤞 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

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

    Aaron (@aaroncikaya) reported

    @O2 @O2 @O2 ABSOLUTE DISGRACE! Nobody wants to take responsibility for YOUR mistake and I’m being passed around to 3-4 different colleagues who don’t have a clue about what’s going on I got put on hold for long periods multiple times. Awful customer service! You won’t see a penny from me until this is solved! Look at how long they had me on the phone for!!!

  • humantorch1036
    Johnny Storm (@humantorch1036) reported

    Finally got through to @O2 customer service on the phone after about two hours. Utterly useless. Couldn't help one bit. Couldn't help with verification. Sim card has gone in the bin. Lost customer. @Ofcom needs to sort them out.

    Deano... (@Frugal_ways) reported

    @LesTwigg @O2 Funny how the sim can receive signal from various masts, yet fails to work on the internet? BBC website loads, but search engines don't. Thanks for the heads up

  • bigfdpgaming
    Furanku (@bigfdpgaming) reported

    The 5G signal on @O2 is so terrible man, barely ever works or loads, had this issue on both iPhone and Samsung, getting rather annoying

  • davidlondon92
    David (@davidlondon92) reported

    @O2 I’m roaming in the US on my ultimate plan and the 5G is painfully slow. I just realised you cap the speed at 2 mbps, which renders it pretty useless. Can I even buy a bolt on to remove the throttle? Not sure why I pay for an ultimate plan if your speed is so abysmal
