Craig Blundred (@craigblundred) reported from Whitley Bay, England@O2 hi - my wife has been trying to resolve issue with SMS settings - have disappeared yet again.

Dave (@daveyK1234) reported from Walker Gate, England@Blyth_Spartans @O2 It was bad enough live I don’t need to see it again 😏.
-
Hugh Toner (@scoobyhugh8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@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
-
Mark Mowbray (@MarkMowbrayNE) reported from Blyth, EnglandDoes 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.
-
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.
-
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??
-

-
philip (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, EnglandLots 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.

Kyle Marleau (@KyleMarleau) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandI’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.
-
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

brian mcmillan (@brainmcmillan) reported@O2 My account was wrongly disabled (O2/Virgin issue) - your staff fixed the database issue three hours ago - how long before my service is re-instated? Your live chat can't help with this and keeps dropping me as "I can't help".
-
MS (@jennslcfc94) reported@O2 my data has not worked for 2 days and I don’t know why. Your app never works. I’ve turned it all off and on and you asked me to DM but you have not helped in any way. Why has my 4G not been working!!????
-

Rudiano (@RudianoBambino) reported@O2 Hi, I have been in Guadeloupe, French West Indies since February 23rd 2026. I got a text saying I have a maximum of 25 GB of roaming allowance included in my tariff. My 02 app doesn't work anymore so I can't monitor my usage. Can you help me see where I am at?
-
CryptoeSIM.io (@cryptoesim) reported@ungodlywheesa @O2 That's a bummer! What phone are you using? Most phones from 2020+ support eSIMs. If yours doesn't, it might be time for an upgrade — your future traveling self will thank you.
-
rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported@O2 It's not tv issues I have an issue with it's not being able to use rewards or just login with a o2 account as I keep being asked to link a virgin media account as previously I was just able to use my phone number which is an o2 one

A1 driver (@ab187_b) reported@O2 Signal is diabolical, I’ll be swapping as soon as contract ends
-
ji 🇵🇸 🏴 (@JunaidIqbal0) reported@O2 trying to correct my DoB on my contract seems to be beyond O2 ability. 6 days in, countless calls to customer service, visits to local O2 store and logging a complaint and still no closer to a resolution.
