    @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?

    @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!

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

  • LuckyTony72
    Lucky Tony (@LuckyTony72) reported from Hebburn, England

    @O2 Got a call bar today. Absolutely shoddy customer service. Also I've waited a minimum of 20 minutes to speak to your alleged customer service agents who appear to be utterly inept to make a simple change.

    Dan (@Dan05858044) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @O2 literally tried for 3 days to get through to you to see if my address change had gone through. 3 f*cking days. What a heap of crap this service is.

    @O2 I can’t login into my o2 app, it says I might be a bee customer and to wait 48 hours but I’ve been a member for years 🤔 it’s just randomly started doing this

  • kathrynbaird_
    Kathryn Baird (@kathrynbaird_) reported from Cramlington, England

    @O2 do you actually talk to your customers? I’ve been trying to contact you all week via the app, have called numerous times to be hung up on by an automated service and can’t get through to you at all. You’ve charged me twice for my bill & disconnected me even though I’ve paid!

    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

    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

  • farrenciaran
    Ciarán (@farrenciaran) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    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!

  • 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 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?

  • SgawShaw
    Muriel Sgaw (@SgawShaw) reported from Seaham, England

    @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!

  • ScottSChristie

    @mhewson_MCH @NickOresme @O2 I just switched to Giffgaff, 40gb data, and unlimited calls etc £10 a month on a rolling monthly contract. The 5G has been much more consistent with Giffgaff although it's the same network!!

    @huckleberrydan @mhewson_MCH @O2 Exactly the same here ! Data is just as bad even if got some phone signal. In a city can’t use the maps because it’s rubbish! My partner has moved to EE. & in going to follow suit if I can find a decent deal!

    @mhewson_MCH @O2 Switch to Tesco, I did it as soon as they announced the ridiculous rise. Same network, but way cheaper and you don't get bombarded with the ridiculous O2 Priority stuff.

    Congratulations to @O2 you have the worst app I’ve ever used. I’ve clicked a link in my email at least 25 times. Unfortunately I’m unable to pay my bill. I refuse to spent anymore time on this.
