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

    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 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

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

    I’m curious how my number for sold ... I think @O2 sold it. Was only 3 for 4 years. Zero issue. Was on o2 for 4 months and this happened. Bullshit.

    @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

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

    @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 It’s still not working

    @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?

    @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

  • 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!

  • 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??

  • andyphilipson
    Bilbo Gubbins (@andyphilipson) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @O2 Hey I just received a text claiming to be from yourselves saying there’s been a problem processing my bill and gives me a link to update my payment details. Pretty sure it’s fishing as my details haven’t changed. Can you confirm if I DM you a screenshot? Cheers.

  • Leggler75
    Emma (@Leggler75) reported from Gateshead, England

    My husband & I have been with @O2 for 15 years plus. Can’t believe the terrible service after using them & O2 recycle. 10 phone calls later no further forward. Kept phone & no money. Disgusting 😡

  • scoobyhugh8
    Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @O2 how can your service be so poor in a city centre.

    @O2 Your service in NE2 is shocking

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

  • 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

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

    @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

    Never using @O2 ever again. They are an utter disgrace of a company. Avoid at all costs. What a shambles of an organisation you have become.

  • AmyGreatorex
    🥊Amy “G-Rex” Greatorex🥊 (@AmyGreatorex) reported

    @BBLouisR @O2 @VodafoneUK I don’t get signal at work at all! The signal in my house is also rubbish even though it’s meant to be a strong area for signal according to their signal checker. Ive been stupidly loyal for 22years and gained nothing but rubbish service really

  • LaurenRose94_
    Lauren 🦋 (@LaurenRose94_) reported

    @O2 what are the hours of your live chat support please? I need to speak to someone but I don’t have time to wait 3 hours on live chat this morning so I wanna know if I’ll have time this evening?

    I am in a "queue" to access @O2 shop. Wtf how can you have a queue for an online store you bunch of crazy people

  • UKrunninggirl
    Northern Running Girl (@UKrunninggirl) reported

    @O2 Thanks I've been checking since last week, apparently it should finally be back tomorrow, but not having a phone for 5 days without warning is very poor service

  • Mark_ElderEmo
    Markandtfe (@Mark_ElderEmo) reported

    @Sean_Bahamut @O2 I had the same issue, called and they were like we can't offer any discount on it. Tried to explain I wasn't after a discount and the price had been dropped by Microsoft themselves. Did you get anywhere with this with @O2 ?

  • ylimeneerg
    Emily (@ylimeneerg) reported

    @O2 what is going on with the O2 app. Everytime I try to sign in it wants to send me an email to read verify my account, I then get an error message and now its blocking me as I've tried to get in a few to many time. IDF-12B reference given...

  • LandladyWoo
    Andy W (@LandladyWoo) reported

    Hey @O2 you agreed to credit me bcz I'd left . You emailed confirming the amount, method & expected payment date 👍 But you also SMS'd saying that for a ££ refund not a credit note I have to select that in MyO2 🤔 But I can't log into MyO2 bcz I'm no longer a customer 🤪 Help!

    Jamie Daltry (@JamieDaltry) reported

    @O2 Why when I google O2 am I confronted with a Virgin login page. I am, for my sins signed with Virgin for broadband, when it works it’s ok. When it doesn’t, it’s a similar nightmare. Same impossible log on procedure, MI5 levels of security I just want access to my emails and bills.

  • BladesOli
    Oliver (@BladesOli) reported

    @1stSimona @O2 I’m with you! It’s awful! Trying to find any details is like a minefield. Plus lately o2 coverage has been shocking compared to other providers in multiple areas not just my local area.
